Vodka Infusions Take Time
I recently got interested in making some infused vodka… I wasn’t prepared for how long it would take:
Cucumber Vodka
This infusion is fabulously refreshing in summer coolers and minimalist Martinis.
- 1 cup English (hothouse) cucumber, sliced
One 750-ml bottle good-quality vodka
Place the cucumber in a large glass container, add the vodka, and cap tightly. Let stand at room temperature for 3 weeks. Taste for the preferred flavor intensity, allowing it to infuse for up to another week if needed.
Let stand at room temperature for 3 weeks! Wow, that’s a long time. I hope it’s worth it.
try it with wormwood its way better
