I've seen a few blogs with instructions on how to make your own vanilla extract but I can't for the life of me remember where I found those blogs. This was so simple ... so so simple. All you do is get a little bottle, add a vanilla pod and filled the bottle with vodka. Leave for six weeks and come back to find beautiful vanilla extract !! I love it !!
My little bottle at the front was cute but the alcohol evaporated ! So .... from now on I'll use the little bottles from store bought vanilla extract ... I've bought a few of them so that I can making new ones as I finish the previous ones ...
This looks ever so easy! Do you make vanilla sugar too?
ReplyDeleteI haven't made vanilla sugar ... In fact, I've never used vanilla sugar. What do you use it for ?

ReplyDeleteI use the vanilla sugar to sweeten my plain greek yogurt. I'm not a fan of too tart and the vanilla sugar adds just enough sweet and some nice vanilla flavor. I know other people use the vanilla sugar in addition to cream in their coffee instead of using flavored creamers.
ReplyDeleteI use it in my coffee. I bet it would be good on anything you sprinkle sugar on.......Oatmeal, for example....
ReplyDeleteAnd herein lies my problem ... I don't sprinkle sugar on anything ! :)
