Why You Will Enjoy This Apple Pie Vodka…

• Simple ingredients
• Apple pie flavor in each sip
• Delicious
• Great for mixing in drinks

🍎 Main Ingredients

Vodka | Use any brand of vodka you want. Reach for an unflavored vodka so you can flavor it with the apples and spices properly to get an apple flavored vodka result.

Spices | Cloves, Cardamom pods, Anise, Nutmeg and Cinnamon sticks are what really help add tons of flavor to your vodka.

You also add some vanilla and sugar to help bring out more sweet in the mix of warm spices.

Apples | For the apples I reached for a sweet variety. Fuji, Honeycrisps, Gala, or even a Braeburn is a great choice.

For this vodka you wouldn’t want to use like a tart apple as it will give it a tangy flavor you don’t want.

Make Infused Vodka In Advance

Plan ahead when it comes to making infused vodka. The flavors need to blend, so it needs to sit for 2 days before drinking.

It needs time for the alcohol to infuse with the fresh sliced apples, warm spices, sugar, and vanilla extract.

Tips and FAQs

• You need to use a sweet apple instead of tart.
• You can use artificial sweetener to replace sugar, just do proper conversion of measurement.
• The vodka has to sit in the fridge in a sealed container for 2 days before drinking.
• The vodka once infused can store in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Best Container To Store

There are numerous ways you can store your vodka. When I soaked mine I reached for a mason jar with a lid.

I find the mason jar works great for fitting the apples and spices in, and getting them removed easily.

Then for later I poured into a pourable container. Just make sure there is a lid to prevent odors from getting into the vodka.

⏲️ How Long To Store

Store this in the refrigerator for up to two weeks once it is infused and you discard the spices and apples.

You don’t want to go over that as the fruit and sugar in the vodka mixture can spoil.

🍷How to Drink

Make A Spritzer, drink it plain, or use this vodka for any of your favorite vodka-based drinks! You can use it any way you would use a flavored vodka.
