So a weird thing happened recently, we had 20 or so people over for pre-drinks and instead of leaving the house dry, we actually gained booze. I know!! So, armed with several litres of vodka, I decided to create some weekend flavours.
What you need
1. VODKA
2. Some sterilised jars
3. A tablespoon of sugar
4. Delicious things - citrus, berries, mint,
spices, vanilla - whatever tempts you
Very Berry Vodka
Two handfuls of strawberries, a handful of raspberries and one of blueberries went into the jar. Followed by a tablespoon of brown sugar and a lot of vodka. Then I shook it like a polaroid picture.
Lime and Ginger Vodka
The juice and rind of 3 limes and about 5cms of sliced ginger went into this one. The ginger was thoroughly stabbed for extra flavour. Then sugar, booze and shaking.
These then need shaking every day. The longer you leave them, the more flavoursome they become, but a Monday batch should be ready for weekend cocktails :)
Let me know what flavours you try.
