Apricot Vanilla Vodka - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (1 liter) bottle vodka
3/4 lb dried apricot
2 vanilla beans
water

Preparation

place the dried apricots in a saucepan with just enough water to cover.
bring to boil and immediately turn off.
allow to soak until soft about 15 minutes.
In a large glass jar (don't use plastic or metal) place the apricots, any remaining liquid, the vanilla beans and the vodka.
Give it a good stir and place in the fride.
Allow to rest in the fridge about a week, stirring or gently shaking on occasion.
You can either strain at this point and decant or, if you use a 'sun tea' type of jar with a spiggot at the bottom you can just pour directly from the jar.
