Equipment

  • Glass Jar with airtight lid

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1-2 liter glass jar with lid
  • 10 fresh vanilla beans
  • 1-2 liters Vodka

Instructions
 

  • In a clean, glass jar, place 10 vanilla beans.
  • Fill the jar, (over the top of the vanilla beans) with Vodka.
  • Put lid on extract and place the jar into a darkened cupboard for 4-6 months.
  • After 4 months, you can decant your vanilla into a smaller jar or jars to give away and begin to use it yourself. When the vodka gets down to about the halfway mark in your big jar, fill it with Vodka again, and you will have more extract infusing. Repeat this process and you will never run out!!
