1 Prepare one pound of bacon until it’s very crisp but not burned.
2 Place bacon in an airtight container and pour 2 fifths of your favorite vodka over the bacon. If the bacon tries to float you’ll want to weigh it down so it stays submerged. Try placing a few table knives across the bacon.
3 Cover it up and place it in a cool place, but not necessarily the refrigerator. Shake the container gently at least once every day.
4 My experience tells me that there is no set “rule” about how long to let this all sit to infuse the vodka with flavor, but I’m told that the longer it sits, the stronger the flavor. I would advise to let it infuse for between one and two weeks.
5 Once it has infused, open up the container and strain the liquid through a cheesecloth so there are no particles left in the vodka. Unless you like particles, and in that case you can even leave all the bacon in there too. After straining, return the vodka to it’s original bottle or to a more decorative one.
6 Now you’re ready to make a crazy martini or the best darn Bloody Mary the world has ever known.

Wowza! That does sound mighty good. Bacon and vodka are two of my favorite food groups. :)

I’ve seen recipes for adding a habanero pepper to vodka for a little heat.
