Homemade Licorice (Martin) Recipe


From correspondent Lawrence Martin

I have a recipe for you - Licorice Schnapps. Buy lots of licorice (from a sweet shop). Take one bottle of decent vodka. Put half into a bottle of vodka (Forgot one important step, have two shots of vodka to make sure the licorice will fit in the bottle). Eat the other half of the licorice. Wait one week - shaking the bottle regularly. Voila - Licorice Schnapps. Try it - it works, its cheap and its quick.

[Editor's note - I assume it's a 750ml bottle of vodka.]


Units of measurement (unless stated otherwise)
1 cup = 8 ounces = 236ml
1 quart = 32 ounces = 944ml
1 tbsp (tablespoon) = 1/2 ounce = 15ml
1 fifth = 25.6 ounces = 750ml
1 tsp (teaspoon) = 1/6 ounce = 5ml
1 pint = 16 ounces = 472ml
