Turkish delight vodka

Step 1

Rinse the Turkish delight under running water to wash the sugar off (otherwise the liquid goes very cloudy) and pop it into a clean jar. Pour over the vodka, put the lid on and give it a gentle shake.

Step 2

Leave it for at least a week – it needs a bit of time to get that delightful flavour infused.

Step 3

When it’s got the right amount of Turkish delight taste for you, strain the liquid into a jug before pouring back into the jar or into a clean bottle. Seal and store in the fridge.

Step 4

To serve, add some Turkish delight vodka to a glass with crushed ice and top up with soda water and a twist of lemon peel. Alternatively, use it to make a killer martini garnished with a sprinkling of dried rose petals and a twist of lemon peel.
