Cranberry and Lime Infused Vodka

This makes a phenomenal festive Holiday present for the special people in your life!

BEFORE:


AFTER:

Ingredients:
4 limes
1 bag of cranberries
Your favorite vodka (I used the "Kirkland" brand vodka from Costco (1.75 L) because it is supposed to compare to Grey Goose for a much better price!--Just some advice from my dad!)
2 tablespoons sugar --to take away the bitterness of the cranberries!
1 pin or needle to poke holes in the cranberries
1 funnel to pour vodka into glass bottle (You can buy these at the dollar store!)
Glass bottles (I bought them from Crate&Barrel--http://www.crateandbarrel.com/kitchen-and-food/food-containers-storage/airtight-glass-bottle/s216669)

1. Poke a few pin holes into the cranberries and fill the bottle halfway or a little less.
2. Cut the lime rind off of two limes and put into bottle.
3. Next use a funnel to pour vodka into the bottle.
4. Let sit for two weeks!

***These ingredients will fill two bottles from Crate&Barrel---Amount will vary according to which type of bottles you use, how many you're making, etc.)

...This idea is inspired by Pinterest--my most recent ADDICTION!

Enjoy! xoxo
