Homemade Vanilla Extract

Ingredients

Baking & Spices
- 5 Vanilla beans, whole

Beer, Wine & Liquor
- 10 oz Vodka

Description

This truly is the gift that will keep on giving. DIY homemade vanilla extract is so easy to make and less expensive by volume than store-bought bottles. Let the extract sit for at least a month before using or gifting. The extract can last indefinitely, and once the bottle is empty, you can dry the pods out and add them to a jar of sugar for homemade vanilla-infused sugar.

Directions

Put split vanilla beans in a glass container that has a tight lid or seal. Pour vodka in the container, making sure to fully submerge the beans. Close containers tightly. Let sit in cool, dry place for at least a month. The color and flavor will get stronger with time. Katherine Flynn
