A delightful homemade cranberry-infused vodka recipe, perfect for gifting or enjoying during the holidays.
Combine the fresh cranberries and granulated sugar in a saucepan.
Stir the mixture constantly to prevent the sugar from burning.
Add water to the saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil.
Boil until the cranberries start to pop, releasing their juices.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
Cooling allows the flavors to meld together.
Transfer the cooled mixture to a mixing jar and add the vodka.
Ensure the jar is clean and dry before use.
Seal the jar and let it infuse for at least 7 days, shaking occasionally.
Store the jar in a cool, dark place for optimal infusion.
Strain the mixture through a coarse strainer to remove the cranberries.
Press the cranberries gently to extract all the liquid.
Filter the liquid through a coffee filter to remove any fine particles.
This step ensures a clear and smooth liqueur.
Transfer the filtered liquid to a clean bottle and seal tightly.
Label the bottle with the date for reference.
Let the liqueur rest for an additional 3-4 days before serving.
This resting period enhances the flavor.
