Ingredients
- 12 Vanilla Beans
- 12 ounces Alcohol 70-100 proof
Instructions
- Use a sharp knife to split the vanilla beans down the center to expose the beans inside.
- Add all your split beans to a jar tall enough to have all the beans completely covered in alcohol. Add the alcohol of your choice, so long as it is at least 70-100 proof (35-50 percent alcohol by volume). Add the lid and close tightly. Shake a few times to help the beans release the caviar into the alcohol.
- Store in a dark, warm place. Vanilla is best left for at least 6 months to extract, but 8-12 is even better. The longer the beans sit in the alcohol, the stronger the vanilla extract will be.
