And the holidays call for aquavit!
Turns out to be as simple as adding dill, fennel, caraway and cloves to vodka.
It steeps for four days, shaking daily. Then I filter out the chunks.

ReplyDeleteAquavit is the water of life! It's right in the name!
DeleteIf you like pickles, it's divine.
Okay, I love pickles. Maybe I need to rethink my previous comment. I also don't have much of a life, so I may give it a try......
DeleteFavorite ratios to use?
ReplyDeleteThis is the recipe I'm using: http://www.foodnorway.com/how-to-make-aquavit-at-home/
DeleteI doubled everything because I'm using a bit more than a full liter of vodka.
If you drink that you will be in danger of becoming a Viking...
ReplyDeleteViikingit? Täällä ei ole viikingejä. Vain me rehelliset suomalaiset maanviljelijät. Kylä paloi, kun saavuimme tänne, kaikki kyläläiset olivat kuolleita. He eivät kuitenkaan käyttäneet niitä lampaita mihinkään!
DeleteSe on meidän tarinamme ja pysymme siinä!
I usually see that in Norwegian or Swedish, but yeah. Aquavit is common through all the Scandinavian countries, although the actual recipes may vary slightly. The one ingredient that is pretty universal is caraway. I love caraway, especially in cabbage and potato dishes.
