Instructions

  1. Wash off the fruits very well then peel the top layer off each of them without getting too much of the pith (the bitter white part of the fruit).
  2. Place the peels in a jar and cover completely with vodka.
  3. Store at room temperature for 1 month, then strain out the peels.

Notes

  • Storage: Store homemade citrus extract in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
  • This recipe makes 3 (6-ounce) containers.
  • When getting the peel from the fruit, try not to get any of the pith. This will give you the best-tasting extracts without any bitterness.
  • Make sure the vodka covers the peel when you add it to the jar.
