INGREDIENTS
750ml good quality vodka
2 tbsp juniper berries (more if you like juniper-forward gin)
1 tsp coriander seeds
2 cardamom pods
2 peppercorns
Half a cinnamon stick
A small piece of dried orange peel (remove the white pith as it’s very bitter)
A small piece of dried lemon peel (again, no pith)
DIRECTIONS
Sterilise a clean mason jar or glass bottle with boiling water
Add your botanicals to the jar, minus any fresh peel
Top up with vodka
Leave to infuse in a cool dark place for 24hours
Taste the infusion – it should have taken on some lovely juniper ginnyness already. Add your fresh peel, along with and extra botanicals whose flavour you want to boost.
Leave for up to another 24 hours, giving the bottle a gentle shake at least once...
