Maple Schnapps Ingredients: Maple flowers or flower buds Unflavoured vodka - 40% alcohol content (80 proof) Instructions: If wet - dry the flowers or flower buds in the shadow on a piece of paper towel. Use a clean glass jar with tight-fitting lid. Fill the jar with flowers or flower buds. Fill up with clear, unflavoured vodka - 40% alcohol content (80 proof). Let steep for 1-3 days in a dark place at room temperature, 18-20°C (64-68°F). Shake lightly and taste it from time to time. Strain and filter your infusion into a clean glass bottle or jar with tight-fitting lid. Store (age) for a couple of days in a dark place at room temperature before serving. Can be stored for almost one year. After that the taste and flavours tend to fade out. |
