You can make fruit flavored liqueurs in a similar way. 2-3 pints of fruit, 1 gallon vodka, 1-2 cups powdered sugar. Mix together in a large glass jar, seal, set in cool, dark place for 3-4 months. We've done raspberries and blackberries. Yum! Oh, don't forget to keep your empty vodka bottle. Once the liqueur is done, you strain out the fruit and put the liqueur back in the vodka bottle. Keep the fruit, it's excellent over ice cream.
We pick up fresh berries at the farmers’ market in the late summer, start the process, and by Thanksgiving and Christmas, we have a tasty sipping liqueur.
You can make fruit flavored liqueurs in a similar way. ..and for Cinnamon Whiskey, pour one toddy out of a fifth of cheap Canadian Whiskey and replace with Red Hots, some call then cinnamon imperials. Excellent winter chill chaser.
It would be a sacrilege to do this to Kentucky Bourbon.
