CUCUMBER-JALAPENO VODKA
Steps:
- Put the cucumber slices into a clean glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Pour in the vodka. Seal the jar and store it in a cool, dark place, like the back of a closet, for 10 days, shaking occasionally. Add the jalapeno slices and let the vodka rest for 2 more days. Line a fine mesh sieve with cheesecloth. Pour the vodka through the sieve and into a large pitcher. Discard the cucumber and jalapeno slices. Transfer the vodka to 1 large or several small bottles. It will keep for a year in a cool, dark place.
Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers. English or hothouse cucumbers are best for this recipe, as they have a thinner skin and fewer seeds.
- Wash the cucumbers thoroughly. This will help remove any dirt or bacteria.
- Slice the cucumbers thinly. This will help them absorb the flavors of the vodka and other ingredients.
- Use a good quality vodka. A smooth, unflavored vodka is best.
- Add other flavors to the infusion. Some popular options include jalapeños, mint, and lime.
- Let the infusion sit for at least 24 hours. This will allow the flavors to develop.
- Strain the infusion before using. This will remove any solids.
- Enjoy the cucumber jalapeño vodka! It can be used in cocktails, mixed drinks, or even as a marinade.
