The process of infusing spirits with cookies is very similar to how you would do it with any other spice or fruit but with some important differences. Let us see how to do that and elevate your holiday spirit.
Unlike other infusions, cookies require a shorter infusion time, ranging from 1 to 3 days. Keep sampling them every 12 hours.
Since cookies have a high fat content, it’s important to strain and filter the final product properly for complete clarity.
Use a high-quality neutral vodka, like Ketel One or Smirnoff which have fresh citrus notes for a drink that show the sweet, buttery notes of fresh cookies.
You can use blended Scotch, as it absorbs the subtle sweetness of oatmeal cookies, resulting in a well-balanced spirit.
Gordon’s Dry London Gin can be used with lemon cookies as they perfectly complement the gin's juniper base and can be sipped neat or added to your favourite cocktail.
