Strawberry Vodka Champagne Cocktail

Adult Beverages Strawberry Vodka ChampagneIt is Thursday…PLUS…I am headed to our Nation’s Capital for a birthday bash (evidence of that next week!); so let’s get our cocktail on! Back I track to the yummy homemade strawberry infused vodka from last week. Here’s a masterful mixture to concoct using that infusion. Similar to an “Accomplice“, but not as strong or as sweet. Ummm, such a fragrant berry season. Cheers! PS…shelf life on the infused vodka is 6+ months. Wow!

1 oz strawberry infused vodka
Bottle of Brut Champagne, or Prosecco
1 fresh strawberry for glass

Pour vodka in bottom of flute.
Fill with champagne.
Garnish with strawberry.

As Always, Enjoy Responsibly.

Strawberry Infused Vodka

Get your cocktail on baby! If you like strawberries and vodka, this post is aimed right atcha! Strawberry season is here in ENC and I picked berries at 903 this past weekend. After I canned my preserves I tried my hand at infusing vodka. Amazing results. Made me feel like a kitchen artist. So, go on and do it, ’cause I’m gonna share cocktail recipes next.

PS…shelf life on the infused vodka is 6 + months. WOW!Adult Beverages Strawberry VodkaWhat you need:
Quart size canning jar
30 + strawberries, rinsed and dried
1/4 cup sugar
Mild vodka (I use Tito’s)

Rinse the jar well and dry it.
Remove stem from berries and quarter them.
Fill jar to top with berries.
Add sugar.
Fill jar with vodka.
Cover with lid.
Shake.
When berries turn pink, about 2 days, strain vodka and save.
Toss berries out.
If you like a stronger strawberry flavor, repeat the process.
