Thanks to Lexi’s encouragement, I ventured into the realm of homemade liqueurs for Valentine’s Day.  I followed her suggested recipe from Instructables, with only a few changes.  I did not add the cinnamon, and I used a pretty inexpensive Skol vodka.  Otherwise, I followed closely, not wanting to waste either the material cost nor my time.  I ended up with enough to make some little Valentine gifts for friends and still have some left for Jefe and I to have a delicious drink ourselves.  Good with just some club soda, but I think it would also probably be delicious with, say, a cranberry/lime sparkling water or something of the sort.  Even a cola maybe, and some vanilla – along the lines of a vanilla cherry coke.
