I am going to make blackberry vodka

[zoidberg]

to mix with lemonade this summer.

Should I do blackberry and sage, or just plain blackberry?

[cereal K]

Plain blackberry. More versatile.

So...how do you make it? I wanna make fun booze!

[goaskalice]

Both!! That sounds delicious.

[zoidberg]

So easy. Just take some decent quality vodka and soak stuff in it. Walla.

For something delicate like berries, I would probably just do a couple of days. I recently did bacon and green chile, and left that in for a week. I could have gone longer, but I was impatient.

Then you just strain and put it back in the bottle. I keep it in the fridge, just in case. I don't think anything can grow in 80 proof vodka, but better safe than sorry.

OMG. Want.

My Dad used to make sour cherry vodka, it was awful because sour cherries suck.

Blackberry sounds like it'd taste a whole lot better!

Yum! I'm so going to do this.

I made cherry, strawberry and raspberry vodkas last summer. They were so good.

Now I want to make blackberry vodka along with some green chile and bacon vodka. I am going to assume you cooked the bacon until crisp and crumbled it in the bottle?

[zoidberg]

Yes, but I didn't soak it in the bottle. Too hard to get stuff out. I used a large glass container with a tight sealing lid.

Blackberries are really sweet right now, too. That sounds delicious.

Great idea! I did this with ginger last year, but I let it steep 2 weeks. That shit was STRONG!

I want it!

Do plain blackberry and then do a cocktail and muddle some sage in there to see if it's good.

I have been craving blueberry vodka, lemonade, and a splash of seltzer. I've never had that combo, but in my head it is SO GOOD.

That was my other idea! I decided to go with blackberry because in my head it seemed more versatile (although, is it really?).

[daisybuchannan]

A berry is a berry, lol. I don't know why that I'm jonesing for that particular combo, but I say go for the blueberry now!

[iamgrace]

I love berry vodkas.

Blueberry and lemonade is GOOD.

[olegregg]

Blackberry sounds good. Blueberry might be more versatile? Idk, I'd think you could get the essence of the sage from just mixing it in a single drink, that way you aren't stuck with it if you don't like the taste.

You've inspired me though!
