This recipe for DIY vodka will blow your mind

Are you going to try it?! - by Amy Sinclair
  • 17 Jan 2019

Ever heard of horseradish vodka? Well we hadn’t either - until now. 

It’s apparently the hot new vodka variation coming out of the US, with boutique distilleries coming up with the unusual new trend. 

This recipe for DIY vodka will blow your mind

But a blogger in the US has come up with a way of making the ‘crazy vodka’ herself - and it sounds exactly that. Crazy. 

Claire Lowler writes: ‘Horseradish vodka is a sneaky beast (assuming you like horseradish). The bite and burn of the horseradish obscures the bite and burn of the alcohol, meaning your brain does not really comprehend how much you are drinking. It is dangerous, and it is one of my favourite things.

‘The Portland-based restaurant, Kachka bottles their own, and I’m a fan, but if you don’t live near a horseradish-booze provider, or simply want to play around with potency, you can do so easily with a blender.’

Claire’s recipe involves blitzing 375ml of vodka with 35g of horseradish and 2 teaspoons of honey. See? We told you it was crazy! 

She then strains the mixture through a coffee filter - you could try a muslin cloth - and pours it back into the vodka bottle, freezing until you’re ready to serve.

Claire also makes a killer lime leaf vodka using the same technique - click here for more - which is pretty insane as well. 

But the big question is, will you be giving DIY horseradish vodka a go?!
