Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Gather and Prepare Herbs

    Collect the Genepi flowers and fresh mint leaves. Rinse them gently under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

  2. 2

    Infuse the Vodka

    In a clean glass jar, combine the Genepi flowers and fresh mint leaves. Pour the high-quality vodka over the herbs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the jar tightly and shake it gently to mix.

  3. 3

    Steep the Mixture

    Place the jar in a cool, dark place for about 7 to 10 days. Shake the jar gently every couple of days to mix the herbs with the vodka.

  4. 4

    Strain the Mixture

    After 7 to 10 days, strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into another clean jar to remove the solid herbs. Discard the solids.

  5. 5

    Prepare Simple Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine equal parts sugar and water (100 ml each) over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved, then remove from the heat and let cool.

  6. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the simple syrup has cooled, add it to the strained herb-infused vodka. Stir gently to combine.

  7. 7

    Dilute with Water

    Add the filtered water to the mixture and stir well to combine all ingredients.

Serving

  1. 8

    Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate the Genepy for at least 2 hours before serving. To serve, pour into small glasses and enjoy chilled, optionally garnished with a fresh mint leaf.
