Flavored Vodka Thread

[p.pete]

Think I'm going with Foxes mints with a few limes peeled and chopped up chucked in for good measure - that'll be one bottle at least.

Further to last year's Skittles experiment, can anyone suggest a sweet / vodka ratio for boiled sweets (aka, Werthers, Fox's Glacier Mints, pineapple chunks, generic boiled sweets etc) please!

has anyone tried jelly beans do they dissolve fully?

i would try campinos but i dont know if they still make them anymore havnt seen them in years.

[DrWackadoodle]

Murray Mint .... mmmm, tasty.

A whole bag of jelly babies in 70cl of vodka was so sickly! Pretty nice though, cherry drops will probably be my choice for glasto

Is it just coincidence that the next thread in this forum is titled: "no more Orange...?"

[MilkyJoe]

I used a large bag (kinda cinema style) minus the green ones with a 35cl bottle of vodka, seemed to work pretty good.

I did fruit salads last year and that went down quite well my friends and the neighbours opposite our camperven. Took some plastic shot pots and did them before we went out every night.

Im trying out some fruit vodkas for this year, but I am thinking about doing a wham bar vodka, this is a question for whamka makers - how many wham bars would you use? Would you just put them in the vodka, and leave them? Any tips would be great.

Thank you

Can anyone recommend the best sweets to use for an intense blackcurrant favour and the same on a strawberry favour?

I'm knocking up a few vodka's for Marillion Weekend in a couple of weeks - decided to go with boiled sweets instead and they are so much easier than Skittles! The sherbet lemons dissolved in just a couple of days and taste superb! Going for some rhubarb & custard and Werthers too, then to start on the Glastonbury batch. I was also wondering about whether to do some rum or gin instead of vodka, any suggestions?

[saratink]

Do hard sweets have the floaty stuff on it like skittles do?

[ICGenie]

Doesn't seem to, the sherbet lemon one is looking a bit like nuclear piss but it tastes damn good!

[alframsey]

I have only ever tried Skitles Vodka, and it wasn't very good either. I'm not a Vodka fan tbh, I only drink it if I can only taste a small amount of vodka, otherwise it makes me feel queasy.

Now Whisky is another matter!

We have just made our last of the glasto vodkas - we have gone for liquorice & aniseed vodka, to go with the blueberry vodka and raspberry vodka. Yum yum yum!

[WhatAboutMe]

Im gna try this for the first time! Sherbet lemons/ Cherry Drops and Glacier mints separately. Does it matter about vodka quality or should i just get the cheapest? and how many grams of sweets per 70cl bottle? Going to make 3 separate vodka mixes out of 2 bottle i thing so roughly 50cl each.

hard boiled blackcurrant flavour style sweets

polish honey vodka + apple juice + a shot or two of normal vodka is nice!
