[Vodka Infusion] Observations

I took down my two vodka infusion experiments last night to see how they were looking after 24 hours. The garlic vodka has definitely taken on a yellow hue, though is still clear otherwise. The bacon vodka's coloration has not changed as much, but it is less clear than the garlic experiment because of the oils from the bacon. I certainly hope that the bacon vodka has absorbed the flavor, and not just the greasiness, of the bacon; and that most of the latter comes out in the filtration process. In any event, they've both changed enough that I think it's justified to unseal them tonight for a taste test.

Ok that's weird. It showed as a red x in my general direction until I right clicked and clicked "Show picture" then I saw it. I love that part in MPATSFTHG.
Then I tried to reply and it said the post was deleted. Now the pic isn't there.
So much drama in the LJBC

When I reloaded this page and saw the red X, I just deleted the comment and reposted it without the picture. I figure anyone who reads my LJ ought to recognize the reference.

"I am the weird beneath your wings." Based on this current experiment, I'd have to say that's probably correct. LOL!

Enjoy!

As I sit here polluting my office air with my Funyuns breath I can't help but think "mmmmm Funyuns vodka...*homerdrool*"

But I think Jalepeno vodka would be better and less gross. I can't wait to hear the results!

Wouldn't it make more sense to put jalapeños in tequila?

Not sure if it would make MORE sense. But I'll be danged if that doesn't sound great. I may have to try an infusion myself on yet another attempt to be as kool as Allah_Sulu Almighty.

I bought a bottle of jalapeno vodka once. I used to dare people to take shots of it... No one ever tried more than one. :)

It wasn't bad at first. But since people were always frightened of the massive jalapeno in the bottom of the bottle, it sat on my shelf for a couple of years (actually still sits there, as a matter of fact), and it's pretty darn spicy now. Wonderful for bloody marys, though. I bought it in Canada about 10 years ago.

mmmm Good and infused now. That's awesome. Mix it with some cheese infused vodka and have Jalepeno Popper Vodka!

Maybe notsomuch.

Wondering if botulism might be an issue with raw garlic off the bulb. I think the vodka would kill the buggers, but I really couldn't find anything decisive. I know it was an issue in oil, but there were several websites that were saying preserve the garlic in vodka to store it a long time. Roasting would kill it, but also take the edge off the garlic. Just thoughts aas I go off to make a vanilla bean infuision for my vanilla mead. Best way to impart flavor into mead is to infuse in vodka and then drop in at bottling.

I wonder about this -

I definitely would enjoy a vodka that tastes as good as this is supposed to.

They all claim to be the smoothest, best, yadda yadda.

But that one does intrigue me.
