Candy Cane Vodka
Description
This recipe involves unwrapping candy canes and breaking them in half before placing them into a mason jar. Unflavored vodka is poured over the candy canes, allowing the mixture to steep and the candy to slowly dissolve into the alcohol. The result is a clear, peppermint-infused vodka with a sweet profile from the candy canes, which can be shaken or stirred before serving to ensure even flavor.
The infusion requires several hours to fully develop the flavor as the candy slowly disintegrates. It can be stored in a cool, dry place in the sealed mason jar throughout the consumption period. If sediment collects at the bottom, shaking the jar redistributes the dissolved candy for consistent taste. The infused vodka is suited for mixing in cocktails or serving chilled as a flavored spirit.
Ingredients
- 8 candy canes regular-sized
- 1 ½ cups vodka unflavored
Instructions
- Unwrap the candy canes and break in half.
- Place the candy canes in a 16 oz. mason jar.
- Pour the vodka on top of the candy canes.
- Allow the vodka and candy canes a few hours to steep. The candy canes will dissolve in the vodka, and then it'll be good to drink after you shake it up!
- Store in a cool, dry place in the mason jar for as long as it takes to drink this up.
Notes
- Shake the jar well before pouring if candy cane sediment settles to maintain even flavor.
- Store the infused vodka in a cool, dry place in the sealed jar during use.
- Allow several hours for the candy canes to dissolve fully into the vodka for optimal flavor.
