Cocktail Party Favors

Even though we still don't have countertops, complete tile and various other on-going projects like wood putty all over our kitchen moldings, I wanted to have a holiday party.  I love having people over and entertaining.  So I will show pictures of how I decorated later on but for now, I wanted to show you all the cute idea of giving infused vodka away as party favors.  Yum! 

I decided to make pineapple and cranberry infused vodka.  Here is what I did.  Sorry about the picture quality. 




Finished product - bad picture



What you Need:

• 12 Small Mason or Ball jars (I used 8 oz so I had room for fruit)
• 1.75L Vodka - don't use super cheap - Stoli is fine
• 1 Pineapple
• 1 bag Cranberries
• Sugar
• Jar decorations
• Ribbon
• Fabric
• Tags

Pineapple Infused Vodka Recipe:

• Cut pinepple into small chunks in similar sizes
• Stack the pineapple like bricks around the edge of the jar
• Pour the vodka into jar to cover pineapple
• Seal and cover the jar
• Put in dark for 10 days
• On Day 10, strain vodka and put back in jar (I put these instructions on jar, see below)
• Store vodka in fridge
• To serve:
• Fill shaker with ice, add vodka, shake and serve...straight!  Yummy!!

Cranberry Infused Vodka:

• 1 1/2 C cranberries
• 1/4 C sugar
• 2 tbsp. water
• 3 C vodka (or whatever amount to fill the jars)
• *I probably could have used a few more cranberries but I haven't tasted it yet*
• Drink within one month



Vodka was kept in dark cupboard for a week



For decorations, I went to the fabric store and bought some cute fabric and cut into squares and put on lid.



I used this cute plaid fabric, tags and ofray ribbon.

  I used Word to make some cute little labels with instructions and tied it on. 



I didn't have a hole punch so I used a cooking pick I had from my Thanksgiving turkey!!
