Vanilla

Have you ever made your own vanilla? 

It's so simple to make. It's 2 whole ingredients! 

Vodka (or absolute) and vanilla beans, THAT'S IT!

Slice vanilla beans lengthwise and add to container of alcohol.  Shake every day, twice a day for 2 weeks.  I allow mine to sit and blend for a month or two before using.  When I get down to about 1/2 a bottle, I go ahead and make a new batch so it's ready when I need it.

You can also change it up and add some flavor with various essential oils
