Ingredients
- 1 bottle of vodka
- 5-6 Peeps marshmallow candies in different colors
- Mason jar or airtight container
Directions
- Start by carefully cutting each Peep candy in half. You can use a sharp knife or kitchen scissors.
- Take a clean and sterilized mason jar or airtight container and place the Peep halves inside.
- Pour the entire bottle of vodka into the jar, ensuring that the Peeps are fully submerged.
- Seal the jar tightly and give it a gentle shake to mix the Peeps and vodka together.
- Place the jar in a cool and dark spot, away from direct sunlight.
- Allow the Peeps and vodka to infuse for at least 3-5 days. The longer you let it infuse, the stronger the flavor will be.
- Every day, give the jar a gentle shake to help distribute the flavors evenly.
- After the desired infusing time has passed, strain the Peeps-infused vodka through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove any bits of marshmallow residue.
- Transfer the infused vodka into a clean bottle or decanter for serving or gifting.
- Store the Peeps-infused vodka in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to use. It can last for several months when stored properly.
