Digestif Ingredients

Method

Digestif Directions

1

Prepare the Mint

Take the fresh mint leaves and gently rinse them under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities. Pat them dry with a paper towel and set aside.

2

Infuse the Vodka

In a large jar or pitcher, combine the fresh mint leaves, lemon zest, honey, and vodka. Stir well to ensure the honey dissolves completely. Seal the jar and let it infuse in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a stronger flavor.

3

Strain the Infusion

After the infusion period, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean pitcher to remove the mint leaves and lemon zest.

4

Mix with Sparkling Water

To serve, fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the infused vodka mixture over the ice, filling each glass about halfway. Top off the glasses with sparkling water to taste, giving it a refreshing fizz.

5

Garnish and Serve

Garnish each glass with a few fresh mint leaves and a twist of lemon zest, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade digestif!
