Ingredients

• 2 cups vodka
• 1 ripe peach sliced

Instructions

• Prepare the Peach: Select a ripe, fragrant peach for maximum flavor. Wash it thoroughly, then slice it into thin pieces, leaving the skin on for added color and flavor.
• Combine Ingredients: Place the peach slices into a clean, sterilized glass jar. Pour the vodka over the slices, ensuring they are fully submerged.
• Seal and Steep: Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark spot. Shake the jar gently once a day to help the infusion process and ensure the flavors distribute evenly.
• Taste and Strain: After 5–7 days, taste the infusion to ensure the peach flavor is vibrant. Strain the vodka through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle. Press the peach slices gently to extract the remaining liquid, but avoid over-squeezing to keep the vodka clear.
