Caramel Apple Vodka Recipe

 

Caramel Apple Vodka is one of the most delicious drinks you’ll ever have, and it’s perfect for taking shots, sipping over ice, or adding into a cocktail. It’s surprisingly easy to make, and unlike many infused alcohol recipes, only takes a couple of days to get the flavors all happy into the vodka. And bonus, it tastes EXACTLY like the favorite festival food that we all love!

    Hi Gina, This sounds soooo good. It also sounds to be very easy … well except for the sugar and water part, that might be a little tricky. But, I am still going to make this and my head is spinning with all of the ideas as to how this can be used. Imagine this in a vanilla milkshake !!!! WOW !!! I also like my ” spiked ” coffee every day at 3:00 PM and adding this to my coffee will be wonderful. Thanks so much for sharing.

    This is really tasty. Giving it as gifts this year. Question. Does it need to stay in the fridge after straining or can it go in the bar (room temp)

      I kept ours in the refrigerator – because cold shots taste best. I’m sure it would be find on the bar though. Thanks!

    How long does this keep? If I was to make it now (end of October) would it keep for Christmas presents? Thanks.

      Sure it would Jeanie, it’s alcohol which has a super long shelf life, it would make a great gift!

    I wonder how this will turn out with stevia for low carb dieters? I am going to give it a try and keep you posted. Also, Gina thank you for such a fun, informative with so many wonderful ideas! I always get a smile on my face when I get a Shabby Creek Cottage email in my inbox!

      Thanks Jan, it should last a good long time as it has alcohol in it but I am not sure to be honest 🙂
