Hey Guys and Gals! A homemade gin made by steeping juniper and botanicals in vodka. No still needed.
Ingredients
500 ml vodka
2 tablespoons juniper berries
1 tablespoon green cardamom pods
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 teaspoon dried lemongrass
2 strips orange peel, with no white pith, which is very bitter
Half a cinnamon stick
1 stick liquorice root
Directions
1. Combine all the ingredients in a container, making sure they are submerged. Seal and shake.
2. Steep in a cool, dry place for 4 days.
3. Strain through moistened cheesecloth, gently wringing it. Strain once more through a coffee strainer if it is not clear enough.
It comes out amber, not clear. That is normal for a steeped gin.
