Product Information

Lush and aromatic, infused liqueurs are the hot new ingredient for your favorite cocktails. They're surprisingly easy to prepare at home and are a welcome departure from premixed syrups. With over 30 infusions and almost 100 drink recipes to use them in, Infused has a recipe for every mood. Infusions combine base alcohols like vodka and rum with fruits, flowers, herbs, and spices, to create superior liqueurs. Drink them alone as an aperitif or after-dinner drink, or in your favorite cocktails. Take the Gibson and give it a kick with Onion Vodka. Cool down with Watermelon Martinis on warm summer days, or get the heat going with Hot Mint Chocolate spiked with Mint Vodka, a perfect antidote to cold winter nights. Whether you are in need of Ernst Hemingway's anise-infused Corpse Reviver or are hosting a crowd of friends with Spiked Mulled Cider, homemade infusions will give your cocktails an unparalleled depth of flavor. Many infusions pair with more than one recipe: herb-infused vodkas enliven both the Rosemary Martini and the Strawberry Basil Martini. Chocolate Vodka is the indulgence in the Chocolate Martini, Brandy Alexander, and Grasshopper, among others. The versatility of each infusion makes giving a bottle of homemade liqueur the ideal gift idea for fellow connoisseurs. Infused includes tips on how to shake, stir, and chill, and has so many recipes and ideas that you may even discover a signature drink of your own.
