Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 750 ml Vodka
- 3 whole Fresh jalapenos
- 1 pair Gloves (optional, for handling jalapenos)
- 1 item Glass jar with lid
Instructions
Put on gloves if desired to protect your hands from capsaicin while handling jalapenos.
Wash the jalapenos thoroughly and pat them dry.
Slice the jalapenos into thin rounds, leaving the seeds intact if you prefer a spicier infusion. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds.
Place the sliced jalapenos into a clean glass jar with a lid.
Pour the vodka into the jar, ensuring the jalapenos are fully submerged.
Seal the jar tightly and give it a gentle shake to combine.
Store the jar in a cool, dark place for 2-4 days, depending on your preferred level of spiciness. Shake the jar gently once per day to help the flavors infuse evenly.
After infusing for your desired amount of time, strain the vodka through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a clean bottle to remove the jalapenos.
Label the bottle and store the infused vodka in a cool, dark place or in the refrigerator.
Use your Jalapeno Vodka in cocktails or enjoy it on its own for a spicy kick.
