Mint Vodka
Martin Hoellrigl
Mint is the queen of cool, a microcosm of refreshment.
- 1 bottle high-quality vodka
- 1 bunch fresh mint
Open the bottle and drink 2 shots of vodka to make space for the mint. Shake mint to remove any bugs or dirt. Insert the mint sprigs individually into the vodka bottle. Store in a cupboard for 24 hours; the vodka will turn brown-ish but will keep indefinitely. No need to strain.
Use mint vodka to make mintinis or double mint mojitos.
Infused vodka can also be made with different varieties of mint, lemon verbena, jasmine flowers, rose petals, lemon grass or fennel leaves.
