I like this recipe because it uses rum or brandy instead of vodka giving it a different taste, this is how my aunt and grandmother have made it for years Ingredients:
1 vanilla bean, coarsely chopped |
1 cup dark rum or 1 cup brandy |
Directions:
1. Put vanilla bean in a clean jar and cover with rum or brandy.
2. Cap the jar and store in a cool and dark place for at least 6 weeks to let the flavor develop.
3. Once a week lightly shake jar.
4. Strain the vanilla extract through a cheesecloth lined strainer and into a sealed jar.
5. Give as a gift with a recipe that uses vanilla or a handbaked gift.
6. If giving at Christmas time I double or triple my recipe.
