Homemade Aquavit
Ingredients
- ⅛ tsp anise
- ¼ tsp cardamom
- ¼ tsp whole fennel seed
- ¼ tsp whole coriander seed
- ¼ tsp caraway
- 1 small piece of bitter orange peel
- 2 pieces of lemon peel
- 1 tsp sugar
- 350 mL vodka
Instructions
- Pour all the spices, lemon peel, and sugar into a bottle—the cuter, the better.
- Pour in all the vodka, put the cap on, and give it a good shake.
- Let the vodka infuse for at least 24 hours, but a week would be better.
- Strain out all the spices and pour the liquid back into the bottle.
- Keep in the freezer; aquavit is best served ice cold!
Notes
Feel free to skip or double any spice. Make this your own! Get creative!
