You Will Need
-
Step 1The ingredients.
-
Step 2I soaked my corks for a bit to, hopefully, keep them from cracking in the bottles.
-
Step 3Zest your lemon, then siphon the zest into your container. This is where I used the funnel because my jars were so tiny.
-
Step 4Measure out a 1/2 Cup of Vodka. It doesn't have to be top shelf but you don't want it to give your extract any off flavors and you really don't want a lemon extract that tastes like kerosene and bad memories, if you know what I mean.
-
Step 5Then just funnel in your vodka on top of your lemon zest.
-
Step 6Then shake it up and leave to sit for 5-6 weeks before using, giving it a good shake every few days or so. Yes, it's a long time to wait but it's worth it!
Congratulations! You've made lemon extract!
