DING DING DING DING DING! 45-days have passed so that means it’s time to add the simple syrup to the lemon zest/vodka slurry. You can see the vodka has extracted the color from the zest and thus the flavor too. I tasted the mixture after adding the simple syrup and whoa, it’s pretty fiery! Let’s hope it mellows out a bit. We’ll see! I have to wait at least another 45-days to find out. Stay tuned!
Raise a glass and toast the weekend! See you back here on Monday!
