Make Your Own Creme de Menthe Recipe - Tablespoon.com image

A simple infused vodka recipe that is a great gift for the holidays or you can just give it to yourself!

Provided by Macheesmo

Total Time 8 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 6

750 milliliters vodka
1 cup fresh mint
1 cup water
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup fresh mint
2 drops green food coloring

Steps:

  • Take about a cup of fresh mint and pound it a few times with your hands to release the mint oils in the leaves. Add the mint to a large container with the vodka.
  • Let vodka steep overnight.
  • The next day, strain out the mint leaves from the vodka. Be sure to get all the leaves as any leftovers will go rancid in the vodka over time.
  • In a small pot, combine water, sugar, and 1/4 cup fresh mint. Stir together and bring to a simmer over medium heat to dissolve sugar.
  • When sugar is dissolved, kill the heat and let cool. Once cool, strain out mint and add sugar to the vodka.
  • Optionally, add a few drops of green food coloring to the infused drink to give it that bright green color.
  • Serve creme de menthe as a cocktail with club soda or use it to spice up hot chocolate!
