The Best Bloody Mary
Vodka Infusion
(From Katie Crenshaw's "A Fork's Tale blog)
INGREDIENTS
1 sliced tomato
1/4 sliced onion
2 celery stalks chopped
1/4 cup baby carrots or 2 chopped carrots
1/2 cucumber sliced
1 sliced lemon
3 to 4 sprigs of dill or more if you like a strong
dill flavor
2 garlic cloves
750 ML Vodka
INSTRUCTIONS
In large container, combine all ingredients.
Refrigerate three days. If you want to make
it spicy, on the last two hours, add a sliced
jalapeño. (You don't want to add it too long
because it will become too hot very quickly.)
Remove all the vegetables and strain clean.
Mix with your favorite Bloody Mary mix or
store in refrigerator until ready to use.
