Last year, when I was buying vodka, the friendly cashier lady and I were chatting as she rang me up. I told her “I’m making homemade vanilla for Christmas gifts!” Her response was “Oh honey, I’m going home with YOU!” LOL!
I got a really good reaction to the gifted vanilla ... everyone loved it.
I will definitely try it. And making it yourself is probably cheaper in the long run than buying it on the spice aisle.
Love vanilla. I always double or triple the vanilla in most recipes. My mother said her mom would always dab some behind her ears when she used it for baking.
You’ve inspired me. Question: why do you use vodka? I was always under the impression that bourbon was the base. Just curious.
