Infused Vodka


O.k. so all mom's on the run need a break once in awhile! A good friend of mine tried infusing vodka with strawberries and it turned out well, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I did 4 different kinds.
First you will need containers and tight-fitting lids. I used quart sized canning jars. Next, slice the food you are using and fill the container. After the container is filled to the top, pour in vodka...all the way to the top of the jar. Seal tightly. Put in a dark, cool place for three days.
Here's what I'm trying. One jar of strawberry. One jar of blueberry because I LOVE blueberry wine. One jar of raspberry because raspberries were on a HUGE sale and I love raspberry flavored drinks. And one jar of tomatos and jalepenos. The last one is to make bloody marys. I did hear that you have to be careful that the jalepenos don't make it undrinkable...I'm going to check this one after only one day and taste.
You will also notice in the picture that the blueberry jar is not filled all the way to the top. I wasn't sure if I would like this one so I only did a half jar.
Once these jars are finished I will make a few drinks and let you know how they turned out!
