Making aquavit is an annual tradition in our household and in this video I show you how you can make your own too. This recipe is slightly less traditional since I'm adding a little bit of spice in the form of black peppercorns and Szechuan peppercorns. They add a nice floral element and just a hint of their spice. But caraway is the true star of this spirit. You can easily make your own at home with this recipe:
2TB caraway seeds
1TB dill seeds
1TB coriander seeds
2TSP fennel seeds
2 cloves
6 peppercorns
10 Szechuan peppercorns
Toast the spices until aromatic and add to a neutral based spirit like vodka and let infuse for one to two weeks depending on how strong you want your flavors to be.
Let me know in the comments below if you would like to see how to use this in some traditional and custom cocktails. Skol

Hello everyone! Hope you enjoy this video on how to make your own aquavit. It certainly helps to have a bottle of this stuff on hand if you are able to have any gatherings during the holidays. I added a little pepper to mine to spice it up (not traditional but very good). I have some wonderful cocktail recipes that incorporates aquavit as well but let me know if there are any you'd like to see. Skol

Very well done! As someone who has passed many a liter of aquavit through his digestive system, you’re making my mouth water! It is an inquired taste, but it’s a nice reminder of Scandinavia! (I’ve spent time in Norway) It can be hard to find in some places, but you show how easy it is to diy. Nicely shot video also. I’m now subscribed. Hello from Utah!

@TheWeePearl 3 года назад

Hello and welcome! That’s so nice to hear! I haven’t had the pleasure of going to Scandinavia myself, but as soon as I tried it I fell in love with the taste. It’s definitely harder to come by than it should be. If you get a chance to try out the recipe I’d love to hear how it measures up. Skål!

@@TheWeePearl I actually do my own. However I like adding more dill and fennel seed, but like you said, it’s up to the individual. I also use 360 vodka (I’m not a paid representative, just a fan) because it’s an excellent vodka for an inexpensive price. 360 vodka also makes a great base for lemoncello. And I forgot to add; drink aquavit neat. That’s the only way to drink it!

@TheWeePearl 3 года назад

@@losttribe3001 Nice! I’ve had one failed attempt at limoncello, but I want to try it again. Appreciate the vodka suggestion! We usually use wodka for the same reason, but it was hard to find for awhile

@losttribe3001 3 года назад

@@TheWeePearl Well...it sounds like you need to take a second crack at lemoncello for your channel! 😆😆 And 360 may not be a favorite for you, but it’s my favorite vodka. Cheers!

@@losttribe3001 I think I will lol. I haven’t tried 360 vodka. I’ll definitely give it a try, you’ve sold me!

I've been binging all of your videos. I'm not sure that anyone asked but I'd like to see any Aquavit cocktail video you create! I love holiday drinks and this would be a great gift idea!

@TheWeePearl 2 года назад

Thank you! I actually used this Aquavit to make this cocktail: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SimX-gBFXqs.html But I will definitely start brainstorming on some holiday cocktails too. Thank you for your support!

Hi there, I noticed that over time the spiciness of the Szechuan peppercorns comes through more and more. How can I keep the flavor from changing over time so that it tastes like it did when it was first made?

@TheWeePearl Год назад

Hello! That is a great question. As the spirit ages, the flavors will evolve. What has likely happened is that the other flavors have softened and the Szechuan peppercorn is taking over. You can try making a new infusion, but leave out the peppercorns and combine them.
