RECIPE BY: Beautiful BC

My son the Mixologist shared this recipe with me. The paper he gave me described this liquid as "the hottest thing to ever hit a bottle of vodka, this infusion adds a perfect element of spicy boost guaranteed to produce the best damn Bloody Marys or Caesers."

    Well "Woweee" from the farm! I love any and all hot peppers, so this really was meant for me. I have let it maturate for about 4 days, and used it in a Bloody Mary last night. Normally, I added extra Tabasco, but not this time! The garden is already producing some pretty hot habanero's and serrono's so all I did was add vodka to it. Thank your son for a perfect way to infuse vodka! Made for ZWT3 07
