My brain is pretty fried, please excuse the shortness of this post. I can't wait for Spring Break!!
Homemade Vanilla Extract
Courtesy of Desserts with Benefits
{I doubled the recipe so I could use up most of the Pinnacle bottle)
Ingredients:
Vanilla beans- 18
Pinnacle Whipped Cream vodka- 2 c + 4 tbsp
*If you use the whole vodka bottle, I'd recommend adding 2 or 3 beans to the mix. You could also use a different bottle.
Directions:
1. Slice the vanilla beans lengthwise, just deep enough that you pierce through one side- you want to expose the seeds but keep them attached to the bean.
2. Place the vanilla beans inside the filled-up bottle. Place the lid onto the bottle and shake up and down a bunch, at least 10 times.
3. Store the bottle inside a dark and cool cupboard/pantry and shake once a day for 4 weeks. For the following 5 weeks, shake it every 2 or 3 days.
4. After 9 weeks, use the vanilla! Shake before using.
Enjoy!!
