Modern man is unique because he is always ready for force majeure. He knows where is the best place to buy groceries, which movie screenings are the least crowded, and what kind of stash is needed for a rainy day. In particular, what is always at hand modern man? A certain amount of money, a pack of soothing tea, spare socks and a few bottles of alcohol in the home bar. The actual type of alcohol depends on the personal preferences of each person. But in one most of people agree: store-bought alcohol does not always offer quality, but homemade tincture is always tasty and healthy (at least not harmful). So the question arises: “What should you infuse vodka with to get a good result?”

Home bar

Reasons to gather for good table happen often, and everything would be fine if it weren’t for the need to stock up on food in advance, choose alcohol, and therefore spend quite a lot of money. Therefore, a home bar always helps. Firstly, you can save on ingredients. Secondly, you can diversify the range of drinks. Thirdly, you can be sure of the quality of the latter. Some methods of preparing homemade tinctures require an interesting recipe, and the taste promises to be much richer than that of the store-bought counterpart. It is easier and more rational to take vodka as a basis, but in itself it does not attract everyone without exception. So the question arises about what to infuse vodka with. There are a great many recipes, and with imagination you can achieve an interesting taste and optimal strength. It’s not for nothing that all cocktails are based on some amount of white wine. By the way, for a homemade tincture, the strength of vodka is too low - only 40%. This means you will have to increase the degree (at least to 45). If you use home remedies, you can buy a couple of bottles of ethyl alcohol. This quick way, but if you have berries, sugar or any other strong alcohol, then you can do without pharmaceutical additives.

A little theory

Before infusing homemade vodka, it would be good to find out what such a natural product is. When mixing vodka with ethyl alcohol, you get a water-alcohol solution with a strength slightly above 50%. But even this is not enough, since tinctures usually have a strength of up to 60%. This is obtained by infusing the solution on berries, fruits and herbs. You can also add sugar or sugar syrup and other ingredients to the solution. Of course, the process is not limited to simply mixing the ingredients. The process takes on average three to seven weeks. It should be noted that tinctures are radically different from liqueurs because the latter are obtained through the process of fermentation or adding fruit drink to alcohol. But in tinctures there are aromatic substances and essential oils goes straight into alcohol. To prepare them, you can use strong alcohol, for example, gin, rum, bourbon or whiskey. But it’s easier to work with pure alcohol, since you don’t have to remove the original taste of the drink.

If you infuse vodka correctly with herbs, roots, seeds or berries, you will get a bitter tincture. The effect of using peel or leaves as a base will be the same.

For the spicy taste of the drink, a spice tincture is prepared, followed by filtration or distillation in a moonshine still.

Fans of relatively low strength (from 18 to 25%) use fruits, berries or roots with the addition of sugar or syrup in a proportion of 200 g of sugar per liter. Remember that if the amount of sweet exceeds 500 g per liter, the result will no longer be a tincture, but a liqueur.

For a sweet tincture, the berries need to be slightly frozen to destroy the fiber structure and get more juice. Infusion requires darkness and room temperature. True, you can leave the tincture in the sun, but then the drink will become lighter and the taste will be a little smoky. Temperature directly affects the cooking speed. They act here basic rules physics and chemistry. To give the finished drink a caramel hue, the fruit must be fried before use.

By the way, during infusion there is no need to open the lid, as bacteria and oxygen can penetrate inside. But there are exceptions when tinctures, on the contrary, need to be saturated with oxygen.

Basic recipe

So, what should you infuse vodka with? This question is especially of concern to those who have never done anything similar before. It's worth starting with a basic recipe. You can infuse berries or chopped fruits. Fill the container two-thirds with berries, and fill the remaining space with alcohol or vodka right up to the lid. This will prevent the alcohol from oxidizing. Close the lid tightly or use a cloth to cover. Every three to four days you need to shake the drink and then filter it using a funnel with a filter or regular gauze or cotton wool. The finished drink should be poured into a clean bottle and refrigerated for several weeks. This method is used to prepare, for example, nutcracker and mountain ash.

For the basic recipe for spicy liqueurs, the algorithm of actions is similar, but at the end it is advisable to filter the drink by distillation.

Finally, for a sweet drink, a bitters tincture is initially prepared, and then approximately 250 ml of sugar syrup per liter is added to it. By the way, sugar can be replaced with honey. The most popular sweet liqueurs with the addition of honey include pepper, horseradish and cranberry.

What is most often cooked at home?

When deciding on the question of “what to infuse vodka with,” the main factors will be your own taste and the desired result, but there are still several most popular drinks that can most often be found in the home bar of an ordinary Russian. These are the ones you should focus on. They are economical when selecting ingredients, so they can be prepared at almost any convenient time.

So, bitter cherry tincture. Ideal for berry season. You will need 1.5-2 kg of cherries, which need to be dried a little in the oven over low heat. If necessary, you can add water. Then the cherry needs to be poured under the neck with alcohol or vodka. The infusion process will take almost three months, and the infusion must be shaken periodically.

Remember about hydrocyanic acid in cherry pits. It becomes harmful after six months of infusion, so with timely filtration the seeds may not be removed. They will also enhance the taste of the tincture. If you pour alcohol into the berries, then after infusion you will need to dilute the drink with water to the optimal strength.

Spicy tincture with cinnamon is in good demand - it will warm you up on cold evenings. So, what can you infuse vodka with to get a full-fledged analogue of mulled wine? For a liter of vodka you will need a few tablespoons of dried blueberries, a little crushed almonds, a teaspoon of ground cinnamon and lemon zest. Cloves and star anise are also useful. The infusion process will take two weeks (according to the basic recipe).

A favorite sweet liqueur - Voronets - is made with honey, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and cloves. The tincture prepared according to the basic recipe should be placed in the oven in a tightly sealed container and kept at a temperature of 50 degrees for 5 hours. Then the drink needs to be strained and placed in a dark place so that it has time to brew.

It must be said that, having studied the principles of preparing basic tinctures, you can prepare almost any drink, but you still need to experimentally test the algorithm of actions. Nobody canceled the share of imagination, because even a strict recipe can turn into a disastrous result, and it is impossible to spoil porridge with oil!

For the berries!

The best time to start stocking your home bar is in the fall, when the berry harvest baffles many housewives. It seems that there is simply nowhere to put the good. After all, a couple of jars of jam, compote and jam from one type of berry is quite enough. But homemade tincture is useful not only for consumption with loved ones, but also for treating guests. The drink is strong and natural, and also good for health, if, of course, you know when to stop it. Otherwise, a preventive dose may turn into an immoderate libation. IN medicinal purposes You can take a tablespoon of vodka tincture a couple of times a day. This dose improves blood circulation, normalizes blood pressure and relieves stress.

It has a pleasant copper color, rich taste and sweet berry aroma. For 10 liters of tincture you will need 6 kg of berries, half a kilogram of sugar and, of course, vodka. Before cooking, rowan berries must be washed, removed from the tails and poured into jars two-thirds of the total volume. The drink should be infused at room temperature, periodically refreshing the vodka, since the berries strongly absorb liquid. Ryabinovka is infused for a month. Then the liquid is drained and the berries are again filled with vodka. The new infusion must be kept for another month and a half, and then the first infusion must be mixed with the second. The drink should rest for a week, and the longer the “rest”, the tastier the result.

A similar algorithm of actions is followed if you want to make cranberries. So, how to infuse vodka with cranberries? Here you need to take into account that cranberries are tasty, but sour. That is, you should not skimp on sugar, and you should focus on the volume of the berries. For example, for 2 glasses of cranberries you will need a glass of sugar, 0.5 liters of vodka and 0.5 glasses of water. By the way, you can use honey instead of a sweetener. With it, the tincture will be healthier and more aromatic. In addition, the natural product can be consumed not only during the feast. Klyukovka is an intoxicating but tasty cure for colds.

So, the berries need to be washed and dried, and then passed through a meat grinder or pureed. Pour vodka directly into this mixture. Pour into a jar, close the lid tightly and leave for three days (maybe a week), and then the resulting liquid needs to be strained. To do this, take a colander, place it over the saucepan, and cover it with folded gauze. We carefully ensure that not a single grain slips through the fabric! At the end, we twist the edges of the gauze and squeeze it in our palms. Dissolve sugar in water and add to the tincture. All! If desired, the drink can be poured into beautiful bottles and put aside until your dear friends arrive. Why friends? Because the product turns out to be weak - only 15-20 o, which means it will appeal to women more.

Nuts for your feast

Now not everyone can afford to have a supply of nuts at home - the product is too expensive. But if you have your own hazel tree, you can infuse the nuts with vodka and get a very interesting result. For example, tincture of pine nuts is generally a remedy for many ailments. But it’s not advisable to get carried away with it either. To prepare the potion you will need a glass of unpeeled pine nuts, about 150 g of sugar and half a liter of vodka. Pour vodka over the fruits, sprinkling with sugar. The drink should infuse in the dark and warm for about two weeks. Shake the container daily to ensure the sugar is completely dissolved. After steeping, do not throw away the nuts, but add vodka again. The second and first infusions must be mixed and allowed to rest a little.

The cooking process, as you can see, is simple, the main thing is to maintain proportions and exposure. In moderate quantities, you can use the tincture for pleasure and to improve immunity, as well as to prevent stomach diseases. Since people like to infuse vodka on pine nuts different countries, the drink became known as “Kedrovka”.

Experienced lovers of this product advise boiling pine nuts twice for five minutes, and after the first boiling, the water should be drained and new water should be added. Why is this necessary? Yes, simply boiling removes the resin from pine nuts and thereby makes the tincture tastier. The cooked nuts should be placed in a colander and only then poured into a jar. You need to infuse the nutcracker for almost a month at room temperature, and then filter it through gauze or a layer of cotton wool. Sugar or honey is added to taste - and the tincture is ready. Stored in an airtight container and refrigerated, it can be stored for up to three years.

You can also get a very tasty drink if you infuse vodka with walnuts. To do this you need nuts in shell, vodka and, of course, sugar. By the way, the partitions do not need to be thrown away, but used along with the cores. So, you will need 400 g of nuts, 0.5 liters of vodka, sugar (honey) to taste. The process is not complicated. The nuts must be carefully cracked, scalded with boiling water and poured with vodka. Leave for 3-4 days, shaking occasionally. Sugar is added at the very end, and the tincture is stirred until it is completely dissolved. The color of the tincture depends on the infusion time and the number of partitions, so if you want to achieve a cognac color, you will have to be patient and wait a month.

On roots and herbs

If you infuse ginger root into vodka, you will get a rather interesting drink - there is no alcohol in it at all, the aftertaste and aroma of spice are pronounced. The classic one is prepared from a liter of vodka (40-45%), 50 g of fresh ginger and 100 g of honey. The latter softens the burning taste of the tincture; sugar is not so effective. So, the root needs to be washed, peeled, grated, and placed in a jar for infusion. Add vodka and honey, stir, cover with a lid and take the container to a dark place for 2 weeks. Shake occasionally. Strain the finished tincture through several layers of gauze, and if you want the drink to become clearer, filter it through cotton wool. All. All that remains is to bottle it, seal it hermetically and send it for up to two years).

In general, vodka is the most effective base for medicinal plants, since alcohol extracts the maximum of useful raw materials from medicinal herbs. For example, from anise and wormwood. Are we ready? You will need vodka (3 l), anise (100 g) and wormwood (50 g). Infusion takes place in two stages. First, you need to infuse anise for a couple of weeks (they use 2 liters of alcohol for it), and then another couple of days - wormwood (fill with the remaining liter). As a result, two infusions are mixed, and the resulting mixture is bottled.

Original danger

The fly agaric mushroom has a bad reputation, but we must not forget that it is indeed deadly poisonous. At the same time, based on this gift of the forest, you can prepare a tincture - for medicinal purposes, of course. The question just arises: “How to infuse fly agaric with vodka?”

This mushroom is found throughout Russia. It evokes associations with witchcraft and secret rituals. Today, the medicinal effect of the mushroom has been scientifically confirmed, and it is widely used in medicine.

Fresh mushrooms need to be cleared of debris, rinsed thoroughly under running water and chopped. The raw materials are placed on cheesecloth and the juice is carefully squeezed out. The resulting liquid is poured into a jar and the same amount of vodka is added (1:1). Infuse in a cool, dark place. Drink this product with teaspoons, not glasses!

Knowing how to infuse fly agaric with vodka, you can subsequently use both the infusion and the pulp. In particular, the gruel is used to treat joint pain, and is also effective for bruises and injuries. You need to apply compresses at least once a day.

• antioxidants - compounds that have an antibiotic effect, but only it is gentle and practically harmless;
