Hey Guys and Gals! A vodka infused with pitted dates, then sweetened with honey.
Ingredients
10 ounces of organic pitted dates
2 cups of vodka (100 proof works best)
5 ounces of honey
Directions
1. Sterilize a large jar in boiling water or on the dishwasher rinse cycle.
2. Cut the dates into small pieces, place them in the jar, cover with the vodka, and let sit for 3 or 4 days.
3. Pour the mixture into a bowl and mash until the pulp comes out of the skins.
4. Return it to the jar and let it sit 3 or 4 more days.
5. Strain through cheesecloth into a clean jar. Add the honey, cover and shake until dissolved. Warming the honey first helps.
