Every time I buy vanilla extract, I cringe because of the exorbitant price.
So I bought my own vanilla beans wholesale and poured vodka over them.
I have another bottle like this to fill and then I'll be on the hunt for cheap bottles.
I'll keep you posted on the progress.
We did this last year for gifts. I ended up buying bottles at Michael's in the wedding section with a 50% coupon :). They had cork stoppers. The vanilla extract is so much better than store bought. Good luck. Love the wreath!
ReplyDeleteThe local feed store had two of these bottle on display so I grabbed them. They were $5.99, and they said they have 15 more in stock. I'll probably go get them and fill them all- I still have a half a pound of beans left!
DeleteOhhh vanilla flavored vodka. I like that.
ReplyDeleteYou stay out of the vanilla extract, Mister!
DeleteI might be tempted to drink the vanilla vodka too. How do you know how many vanilla beans to put in how much vodka?
