1️⃣ Prepare the raw ingredient(s) for extraction. For vanilla extract, use a sharp knife to split the vanilla pod open lengthwise to expose the tiny seeds inside.
2️⃣ Place the raw ingredient inside an 8 ounce glass bottle or mason jar.
3️⃣ Pour vodka into bottle to fill, leaving a 1/2-inch space between the vodka and the top of the bottle.
4️⃣ Place the lid on the jar to close. Let sit for 6 weeks, giving the bottle a gentle shake every 2-3 days. Be sure to store them in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
5️⃣ The extracts will be ready for use after 6 weeks. If you'd like, you can strain the raw ingredients from the extract bottles. Extracts stay good for at least several years.

The guy at the liquor store is thinking....man she drinks a lot of vodka.....
haha!
Lol
Lol
I bet she's a fun bartender 😘🏆
😅
If you want you can wrap the clear mason jars in tin foil if you don’t have amber jars. That works too.
Thats what I was wondering. Maybe even a tinted plastic wrap
Absolutely. Then pour them into the smaller jars. So much easier to clean out.
If your bottle/jar is small enough a drink Koozie would work.
@@weareisrael143 just buy amber bottles/jars or use foil. You can reuse the foil several times and its better for the environment. To much plastic
@@mikey_mike thank you
I like the fact that it is REAL food rather than artificial flavors. You know exactly what's in it. Good job!
That is one of the best parts of making things at home (:
@@MSBowen-pk6ww when you use it in cooking the alcohol is burnt off, and you're only putting in a tsp usually in a recipe, so miniscule. Even if it's a no bake recipe there is nowhere near enough to get anyone drunk. Hope that helps
@@MSBowen-pk6ww little known fact, at least i didn't now this until a few years ago, store bought extracts are typically alcohol based.
@@sarahwells6898 watch out for kids though still pure vodka sheesh
@@madtrackk obviously I don't give alcohol to my kids. Seriously
You should try using bourbon when making vanilla extract. I use the Double Oak Jim Beam, as it aged in two different barrels to allow a deeper rich caramel flavor that I have never gotten from vodka. I feel that using a bourbon for vanilla extract yields a rounded deeper vanilla flavor which gives my baked goods an extra flavor that my family loves.
Thanks for expanding my homemade extract recipes. I just started a bottle of cinnamon, orange, and almond extracts.
How many vanilla pods do you put in 750ml?
@mud-sock-girl thanks for sharing your knowledge. I think I want to try that myself
To get the most out of the vanillapods:
- Use the seeds in a recipe
- Put the leftover pods in a container with some sugar. A large pod can produce about a cup of vanillasugar. After a couple of weeks (shake every couple of days) it's done.
- The sugar will have dried the vanillapods. But they will still be fragrant. If you end up with a lot of dried vanillapods they can also be used to make extracts, either use vodka or glycerine.
Make a RUclips video 👌🏼
Glycerin not propylene glycol?
How long do the extracts last after they are made?
Vanilla sugar then create extracts via alcohol or glycerine... Got it
i have 4 pods in a 128oz container of sugar. I started in 2017. still extracting flavor after over a hundred refills when it gets to half.
sugar is used as a curing agent afterall
Oh my goodness, I bet the fresh coconut extract is heavenly!
I make the raw coconut but I also toast the fresh coconut to a golden brown before extracting. Toasted pecans, black walnut, almonds all add extra flavor.
Many of my recipes also start with 'a whole bunch of vodka', then end in getting take-away pizza. Anyway, nice vid. Try blending the vanilla and coconut; it is fantastic.
My wife and I made the vanilla extract and lemon. We will never buy them at a store again. Their just to easy to make. Next, we are going to make vietnamese cinnamon bark extract and mexican vanilla bean extract.
Omg please let us know how the cinnamon turns out.
Try Sri Lankan cinnamon, aka Ceylon. It has a more floral flavour than Vietnamese, I love both of them.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE EXTRACTS?
@@prophetesschambuladevine666 You use them in baking and recipes. You can make any flavour icing you want w/ your extracts too.
@@saintejeannedarc9460 TY
Everyone says you can use the vanilla beans over again, but they only have so much flavor to be extracted. You can reuse them, but your vanilla will be mostly Vodka.
I've made multiple types of vanilla (Bourbon, coconut, and spiced) but I'm looking forward to trying orange, lemon, and mint, which I also use a lot and they're REALLY expensive.
Please make videos using these extracts thank you!
D T 😂I was thinking that’s so wonderful, now what because I don’t bake. So I was going to drink them🤷🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Really! Now I know how to make it, what do I do with it ? (BE NICE).
@Silver Chopsticks I've used coconut extract in butter cookies, and it was delicious.
Hahaha! She does a nice job though of making it simple!
Does the alcohol affect the flavor of the food???
Truly one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen! Thank you for this wonderful and informative video and for admitting that fresh whole vanilla beans are expensive but worth it! Fantastic!
They Vanilla beans are soooooo expensive!! haha. Glad you like the video (:
Yes and I did not know I could reuse it
The vodka and almond one helps with thyroid problems. It helped me a lot. I used the unpeeled ones.
Beautiful presentation; but I'm in a vanilla extract making group, actually a few. From what I've learned, it takes at least 12 MONTHS to make vanilla extract, not 6 weeks. Other extracts take much less time; like you said, a couple months; but vanilla is a year to year in a half long process. Thanks for the video. Just offering clarity.
Yes, I've seen this too in other videos
Thank you, what a great idea. I always run out of vanilla. The others I've never even thought about. Keep up the awesome video knowledge you offer
This is great, Rachel. Thank you! These would make great Christmas gifts for my foodie siblings!
You’re going to give these out as Christmas gifts? If you’d like to adopt another sister, I’m free...
Great video!!! Thank you. I’m making all of them today except for coconut.
One tip: scrub the orange and lemon before removing the strips.
I'm so very happy for you giving me a fresh take on making absolutely great cooking extracts and great clear directions and a before and after of these extremely wonderful extracts..💯💞
I use neutral grain spirits which has a much higher alcohol content so you can dilute with distilled water to make same amount stretch further. I also use brandy or bourbon for my vanilla extracts, which gives it a rich, deeper flavor.
Omg I love this idea!!! I’m going to make my own vanilla extract now!! And my own almond extract for sugar cookies!! Thanks !!!
What a great idea. Thank you. Excellent video, with no waffling.
Alcohol free friends, you can use food-grade glycerin x
Ankh Anon thank you 🤗
Excellent tip! Is the result as strong? Should it steep for a longer period?
@@TrudyConway It will take a bit longer than alcohol
Thanks! Good to know.
Ankh Anon , thank you! I use vanilla extract to make a vanilla frappe for my morning coffee.
Although...if I use the vodka, I might enjoy the rest of the day more. lol
Oh I'm so glad you did this! I'm thinking these might also make great Christmas gifts! Gotta get started on them soon! Can't wait to try! Thanks!
They do make great Christmas gifts!
Love the videos. You are so clear and straightforward. I just finished watching the homemade butter video and now this. I think this will be a favorite because I use a lot of extracts. Thanks for the vids.
This is so easy to make, I had no idea! Thank you for sharing your recipes; God bless you.
Thanks for watching my recipe videos (:
How to make extract: put stuff in vodka
Don't forget to keep it closed for 6 weeks and to shake every 2 days. 3 easy steps...
Real title .....
How to wined vodka with flavours
Florian Tolk put vodka in stuff
i mean, scientifically speaking, yeah. store bought extracts are 99% alcohol too
Florian Tolk LOL ROFL
She is SO SWEET. 💖 I enjoyed watching this video.
Just make sure you use organic lemons and oranges. The stuff they spray on doesn't wash off. Other flavours to try: star anise, green tea or spice mix (cinnamon, clove, allspice, orange and vanilla for example)
Yes! I looked this up because I want to do a spice mix, I use it for my coffee. Star anise, cardamom, clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
A suggestion. Most people don't realize that the majority of vodka's sold today are actually made from cheap grain alcohol and not potatoes which is from what true vodka is distilled. You can find an excellent low priced, but highly rated potato vodka at Trader Joe's called "Vodka Monopolowa," imported from Austria. It varies in price from state to state at the TJ's, but for actual potato vodka is still usually cheaper than the fake vodkas made from grain alcohol.
That could be a great tip for people living in states where TJ can sell Vodka!
@@Thestayathomechef :( I forgot that not all states can sell hard liquor in grocery stores.
Ohh surprisingly easy to make .
Thanks for sharing. 😘
You are welcome (:
This is super awesome. I’m definitely going do this. I stop buying bread because I make it at home. Since I do bake a lot this would be much better then continuously buying extracts. Thank you for this video.
Glad you found a new recipe you can try (:
Well I certainly laud you in your efforts. Extracts can be a bit tricky. I have made many over the years. My bottle of vanilla extract is the size of your Vodka bottle... and as dark as your amber bottles... in a clear bottle. Yes its over a decade old and soooo nice and smooth. Contrary to what was stated I have always heard the cheaper the better for the alcohol. And thats what I use. You can also use bourbon rum and others. I love love love my cinnamon extract. Made from Mexican cinnamon sticks. Turned the vodka a lovely brick red. And delish. Cinnamon cookies are so fabulous. You got the citrus ones down and dont forget grapefruit and lime. I would use much more mint to that jar... really pack it in there. And mint like most delicate leafy herbs can go bad quickly so I would switch to fresh mint as soon as it changes color. As I have explained on my fb page Amazmerizing the pure almond extract is not made with almonds it is made with noyeaux... aka freestone pits. Yes the little nuts inside of cherry peach apricot pits. I have a heavenly bottle of almond extract that is also years old. Glad you are doing these experiments. Many of these types of skills have been dying out. So thankful you are keeping the dialogue open and the art of extracting alive. Namaste ;)
Hi lady!
My mom said it looks like you give great hugs! haha
Thanks for the video, Will do!
Great video and perfect instructions. Love the before and after. Thank you!
So glad I found this vid again. I saw a lady who makes hers with spice rum and doesn't use them for at least two years.

You are welcome glad you liked the video (:
Thank very much for this priceless video. Love from Nigeria....
These would be so cute as gifts for a baker!
They would!
This made me a subscriber. Very educative
I found a box load of these tinted bottles that were used for tinctures. Washed and scrubbed and ready to go! I love unexpected blessings!😜
I hwve been taught to freeze the bottles ingredients for overnight as this will crack the cell walls of the plant material for great results the next day.
Highly underrated comment; Thanks! Finely chopping works well too.
Freezing and into room temp vodka to shock cell walls, finely chopped to increase surface area, both good tips thanks!
So let the ingredients defrost in the bottle with the room temperature Vodka? If so the water from the freezing won't affect the mixture.
Do you just freeze the bottles overnight and then you keep them outside for the rest of the days mentioned ?
So glad I watched, I've always wanted to make my own extracts. Its so easy. Thank you so much can't wait to try!
Use used kombucha bottles. They are amber. You're welcome.
Yes I save all of my bottles too!!!
Same here but mine is purple! 😊
What about the vodka ? I’m 19 ☹️
Thank you!!

Wow that’s amazing great gifts for the holidays ty 😉
Thank you for this video. All the way from Tanzania 😊.
@@nom_de_guerre_ Poa
theres 2 types of people.
"alright i can now have a bunch of high quality extracts for baking"
"haha alright flavored vodka brotherss"
im the second guy
You definitely want to be careful with that, certain herbs that are tinctured for 6 weeks will release volatile oils that can make you sick (in high quantity). If you want flavored vodka, for drinking, I would suggest not going longer than 1 week.
@@LuLu6214 ah ok. thank you.quick question befor i drink this, what will said oils do if i drink it. asking for a friend
@@baronvonkaiser9912 There are a good number of herbs (peppermint in excess can be a problem)...in fact it's better if I just say ALL herb tinctures taken in excess will cause a problem. Best thing is to try a short soak of herbs and go from there. Start with a short amount of time and work your way up. I personally would taste test after an hour and go up from there incrementally. (1, 3, 5, 8, 10, etc hours).
Save the time and blend or muddle some real fruit (raspberries, strawberries, orange & lemon innards, etc.) and add it to the vodka. You can drink it straight away or experiment how long it takes to become undrinkable. :)
Thank you so much for sharing! I can't believe it's this easy!
Perfect timing! I just ran out of vanilla extract. 🤗
Sounds like this is the recipe for you (:
Better grab a small bottle to use while the homemade is brewing.
Yes. And perfect timing for these to be ready for holiday and winter baking.
Awesome video! Loved detail instructions with rationales !
I make my own vanilla extract with bourbon. I have it in a big Mason jar with a bunch a vanilla beans and when it gets low I just pour in another bottle of bourbon.
Great idea, how long does it sit,?
How many times? Is it as strong as the first time.
Bourbonilla.
I prefer using brandy. 😁
I use rum
I like how you compared the new extract to the old extract
I love this! I really like vanilla bean paste... could you tell us in a video how to make it?
My daughter makes these and gives them away as gifts.. She wraps her jars with black construction paper.. I've haven't purchased extracts, I'm sure in 15-16 years.. I can't wait to try the cherry, she's started. Thanks.
You are so welcome (:
I just found your channel. Thank you for sharing this.
You are welcome and hope you find more videos you like (:
So far I was buying those extracts by paying huge amount.thankyou for the video.will.make from.nownonwords.thankyou
Can't use vodka as I'm a Muslim is there an alternative?
Vegetable glycerin
Wonderful teaching and direction , thank you so much 😊
Thanks for this video. I have made extracts before but using Everclear which is a powerful alcohol. I have never made almond extract but will do so now, since it is so expensive. I bought an almond flavoring and it is called Back Bay Trading Company. I really want the real deal though and choose not to use McCormicks. I have made vanilla, mint, coconut extracts and homemade Grand Marnier (orange), and Kahlua (coffee). All were most excellent especially since I aged them for over a year. Thanks again!
You are welcome! Good luck with the Almond extract (:
@@Thestayathomechef I am thinking of crushing the almonds a bit to extract more flavor. Have you done that yourself?
@@christinamary8008 No thanks. I want REAL almond extract and not a reasonable facsimile.
@@WindDancer435 most almomd extract is made with a relative plant seed like apricot seeds. For example McCormick does not use almonds. I do understand what you are saying since you're making it yourself. Just an fyi.
Enjoyed this video. Consider using organic citrus fruit. High pesticide load.
Could be a good idea (:
I remember as I was purchasing a few bottles of Vodka & Bourbon to make my yearly extracts.
The man at the counter said, Wow!! are you having a party?
ME: No I'm infusing flavors together
HIM: What? What?
ME: I'm making flavored extracts.
HIM: Making what?
ME: Nevermind. Yes! I'm having a party. Lol, How many drinks has he had? Too funny.
@TheStayAtHomeChef: Rachel, I absolutely love your channel, personality and of course your recipes. Thank you for sharing. You're awesome!

@@nheinrich834 Cherries, Apple/Cinnamon, Peaches/Pecans, Coffee, Honey/Ginger, Caramel sauce, Pineapples, All infused in Bourbon. Next, I will make bourbon chocolate caramel pecan candy as well as a BBQ sauce. Thanks for asking!
lovingginaj yummmmm! Sounds amazing!
@@iamginaj wow that sounds delicious. Would you share your recipe. Is it a secret recipe. Do you sale them. What does it taste like with bourbon.
@lovingginaj: Please share your bourbon recipes! Thanks
Just discovered your channel and stumbled upon this video for making extracts. It actually sounds pretty easy which I never thought making extracts would be easy. Thanks for sharing! I think I’m gonna go subscribe.
Welcome to my channel! Hope you find even more amazing recipes (: But ya extracts are pretty easy to make, just got to wait a little for them.
Is it possible to leave the flavoring agent in too long?
Are the principles the same if you want to make flavored oils or vinegars? If not, can you make or point me to a video on flavored oils/vinegars?
OMG -- GOOGLE IT.
When using oils you need to be careful as the addition of water can turn it rancid I believe. You can use dried herbs etc to the same effect. Vinegar is pretty much the same also.
Wow. Thank you! My daughters and I love to bake.
You are welcome (: If you love to bake make sure to make these!
This question might be here already, but I'm just curious. Does the Almond extract become sweet and cherry scented like the one in the store?
Not that I've found it just smells like almonds to me but I blanch and roast mine before slivering to put into the jar the flavor is way stronger and gives it a nice body in the background especially in cookies!
The white pith is the healthiest part of the citrus fruit.
Full of muscle & skin healing vitamins & loads of fibre as well.
Exellent video. Thku for showing me how to make extract😁
The white part will also turn you extract bitter.
Does the alcohol disappear in taste after it has fermented. I'm asking because I do not drink alcoholbut I do love that I can make something at home
Vanilla extract in the store is made with the same method so it’s just like that, but far better quality. They tend to use cheap alcohol based.
Karin Hall - was thinking the same. I just posted that question. I never knew how vanilla extract was made. I don’t drink or use alcohol in my cooking so that was a little surprise 😮
Alcohol is in all the extracts. It is required to avoid spoilage. In cooking, the alcohol is evaporated but the flavoring remains. O
Vodka doesn't have a flavor, hence why it's used to make extracts. Like the others posted, the majority of the alcohol is lost while cooking.
i was searching for a comment like this since im only 16 XD
I powder from fresh.
For instance, skin & seed fresh tomatoes & use a dehydrator to take out all the water, transfer to grinder & mill the dried tomato, sieve into powder & store.
Making extracts is a great idea. I have two practical questions, though. First, those bottle necks you’re using look pretty narrow. I can see getting the mint, orange, coconut, etc. IN the bottles but how do you get them OUT? You can top the vanilla beans with new alcohol but what about the rest? You’d have to pull them out at some point. If you can’t do that, you’d have to toss them out, which seems impractical. Secondly, isn’t it best to use organic oranges and lemons so you don’t get nasty chemicals in your extract from the sprayed peels? I was wondering if you were going to say something about that, but I didn’t hear you mention it.
I was wondering the same.... why not prepare it in mason jars and transfer it into to bottles when it is ready.?
Thank you.
Not sure if I'd have enough vodka to make an extract with - after I get done drinking.
So simple! I'm def going to try this 1 day
Let me now when you give it a try!
I love this 💕 what is the shelf life after straining?
In the alcohol it is self preserving.
Looking at the price of extracts this is simple, good and cheaper! I am doing this from now on! But amber bottles is a must!
Hope you like them (:
So after 6 weeks, do we remove the coconut/mint/etc? Or do we keep them in?
Regina Phalange my grandma used to keep them in if it’s one she used basically everyday lol. The others she didn’t used often she passed the extract thru a fine food drainer and discarded of the rest. But as you see in the stores..... they keep it all there.
Remove them I would remove coconut within 2-3 weeks at that point there nothing in it it’s just rotting
Coon_byYah's Gaming it shouldn't rot if you use strong enough alcohol and don't put too much coconut in to start with.
Same question.remove or leave in.
Betty Davis remove it. After a week or so everything it soaked drained whatever u wanna say out of the fruit and it will start to rot
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
God bless you beta ( daughter/ son.... it's one of the affectionate addressing for youger ones...... in India.)

Yes! And banana!
Thank you!❤️❤️❤️👍🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏼❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is a amazing! For those of us who don’t drink or use alcohol, what would you recommend to use? Thanks xx
Hi, I always make my vanilla extract with glycerin ( food grade glycerin) every 100 ml glycerin for 1 pod of vanilla :) and it works great.
Glycérine 😱😱😱
@@mariemyriam5616 is it vegetable glycerin? or?
@@maryambintjames605 Hi...I'don't know ,it's food grade glycerine...anyway glycerine is a form of alcohol but not the same alcohol that is in drinks...there are so many type of alcohol...there are alcohol in perfumes....medicinal alcohol ..etc...so i don't know about glycerine if there is vegetable glycerine....
FYI - Most extracts are made with alcohol. So it has NOTHING ti do with drinking. The extracts are used for food unless you are making medicinal infusions. Google it.
Thank you for the video! How long is the shelf life would you say of these extracts? Would you keep the mint, orange peel, etc in the bottle beyond 6weeks?
FYI: Smirnoff is the only GMO free and GLUTEN free vodka for those who care.
That is really good to know (:
Thanks!
Devotion Vodka also claims to be GMO free and Gluten free (it's distilled from corn). I prefer vodka distilled from Potatoes though, for whatever reason, it's the only kind that doesn't make me feel ill.
@Michael Ward Actually, a lot of vodka is made with wheat (at least a lot of it here is made from wheat). And I've never had issues with Bourbon, which is made with corn... So I honestly have no clue why Vodka bothers me but not other spirits.
OMG!!!!!! Thanks Rachel....how these recipes seem to be so delicious. Your are a good chef....Thanks sweatheart.
“Vanilla beans are super expensive”
Me: _googles vanilla beans_

Min $7 for 1 bean here in Europe. Its madness

@@thEb3stEzt I did say minimum. I've seen 15 too. 1 little bottle of extract 8$ or more, with a salary $200/month. As if I'm buying gold 🙄
anycullen21 unbelievable! It’s actually pretty ridiculous.
Last I looked, at Costco here in California a 16 oz. bottle of Vanilla Extract is going for $30.00 Think I’ll try this.
Moonshine works wonders!
i know you say you can leave the raw ingred in, but after a couple years will it turn rancide or does the vodka preserve the almonds, mint, rind and coconut?
Alcohol preserves anything. It prevents any living being from existing in high concentration, so no molds or fungi/yeasts.

Can any non-alcoholic liquid be used for extraction? Any suggestions?
Vegetable glycerin
@@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa wow, that's great. How do you use it.
check out "infused oils" basically, its pouring hot oil, any kind, over herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables, or any flavor you wish to use, then you let it steep for a bit, strain it and bottle it for later use. you can use cold oil, but it will take a bit longer for the flavors to seep into it
@@gracefuller9554 hello Grace. I'm going to try it. Thank you
@@gracefuller9554 wow Thanks a lot, will try it, ❤️from Ghana 🇬🇭
Advice. Use small mason jars to create the extract and amber bottles to store/use. Its hard to “strain” after extract when you have a narrow neck like that.
How would you make banana. The peel or the banana
Banana peels don't have quite the same taste as the banana itself, and if the banana is not completely ripe they'll leave an unpleasant astringent taste. I'd try using a very ripe, almost black banana, but I'm pretty sure it's not gonna work as well as the flavors in the video.
Thank you for this video! Will definitely try coconut as I already have vanilla and almond. What do I need for banana extract? The peel or the actual banana?

Can you leave the stuff in the bottle or do you take it out? Like the orange or vanilla
You can strain it after 6 weeks
@@Thestayathomechef what's the longest you can leave it in? I would guess the longer it sits the better?

Basically it’s tinctures
Oh ty! So glad I found your video, had know idea vanilla bean could be reused!
Vanilla beans are so expensive becuz there was a fire in Madagascar and it took out most of the vanilla crops
That’s why I buy Mexican Vanilla- it’s Cheap and very good.
There’s no reason to pay that much money for one ingredient
And there’s is always usually a variant
I will probably end up drinking the first bottle by the time I finish filling the last bottle 😍 cheers
