• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

I make my own flavored Vodka for this drink.

Cherry-Tini


For the Cherry Vodka
:

Ingredients:

1 Mason jar (pint sized or larger)
+/- 1/2 lb. fresh Cherries
+/- 2 C. Vodka

Method:

Place the Cherries and Vodka in the Mason jar, cover and leave in a dark, cool place for +/- about a month or so, you decide when it's done

For the Cocktail:

Ingredients:

2 1/2 oz. Cherry Flavored Vodka
1/2 oz. Dry Vermouth
2-3 Vodka-Infused Cherries for garnish (they taste amazing!)

Method:

In a Cocktail Shaker (or in my case a cold Mason jar, `cuz I don't own a shaker), add in a nice scoop of Ice
Pour in the Vodka and Vermouth
Shake well for about a minute or so
Strain into a chilled cocktail glass of your choice (a Martini glass is classic)
Add in the infused Cherries
Enjoy!

I just love the color the Cherries lends to the Vodka!
