Berries & Vodka
I took a trip to the Ann Arbor Farmers market today for some fresh Michigan berries to recreate a berry infused vodka recipe that I saw on B. Smith’s television show way back some time in the 90s.
The recipe was quite simple as I recall. Just, a mason jar filled with a cup or so of sugar, a cup or so of your favorite berries & vodka. Good vodka, which steeps for about 2 weeks.
Finding great blueberries, raspberries & black raspberries was the easy part because it’s berry season here. The hard part was finding mason jars. Actually it wasn’t that hard but the store that I visited only had mason jars in boxes of 12. All I needed was 3 jars. 3 not 12!
Luckily, I found some apothecary type jars that were about 1 quart & settled with those.
Marshalls or Kmart usually have those jars in stock.
Thanks for posting. I think I will try this.
Great idea…would make nice gifts too.
Damn, now I wanna make this and Renea is right, this would make a great gift! The holidays will be here before you know it!
Its sooooo good & easy so you have to try it.
