Ingredients
1 pound cranberries
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean, split
1 bottle tonic
Lime slices, for garnish
One 750-milliliter bottle vodka
Directions
- Place cranberries, sugar and vanilla in a medium saucepan. Place pan over medium heat and stir. Simmer cranberry mixture until the berries burst, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Divide mixture in half and pour into large, clean mason jars. Pour vodka into the jars to cover the berries. Set aside and allow to sit for 1 week. After 1 week, strain out the cranberries and store cranberry vodka in a clean jar in the refrigerator.
