Equipment

  • 1 Bottle

Ingredients

  • 500 ml vodka
  • 2 tbsp juniper berries
  • 6 cardamom pods
  • 1 pinch rose petals
  • 1 tsp coriander seeds
  • lemon peel

Instructions

  • Open the bottle of vodka and add the rest of the ingredients. For a stronger flavour it’s a good idea to smash the cardamom pods and juniper berries in a pestle and mortar first. Reattach the bottle's lid and leave it in a cool, dark location for 24 hours.
  • Pour the infused mixture back into the bottle to keep after straining it through a sieve that has been lined with coffee filter paper. Will keep for months in a cool dark spot. Use as you would any gin, so great with tonic or in a martini.
