Go foraging for fresh conifer needles, then make this refreshing conifer needle infused vodka! You can use any edible conifer needles - there are many, such as pine, spruce, fir, redwood, or hemlock. This foraged winter vodka is a lovely winter treat!
Rinse the conifer needles to remove any dirt or grit, shake to dry, then place into a quart-sized jar.
Pour the vodka over the needles, covering them completely.
Cover the jar with a lid and place in a cool dark place for several days, and up to 2 months.
Strain the vodka into a clean jar. Cover the jar and keep at room temperature.
Notes
Serve the conifer needle vodka straight in a sugar rimmed glass, or you can get fancy and make a cocktail with it. It would blend well with soda water or even ginger ale.
