🧂 Ingredients

1 To sterilize the lidded glass jars with boiling water, immerse it in a pot of
boiling water, ensuring it is fully submerged, and boil for at least 10 minutes.
2 Place 5 cinnamon quills in the sterilized jar and fill it up with 1 cup vodka or
until the jar is fully filled.
3 Screw the lid tightly on and store the jar in a cool and dark place for a
minimum of two weeks. Shake it lightly occasionally for the flavors to fully
mingle.
4 After the steeping period remove the cinnamon quills. Pour the aged extract
through a fine metal mesh strainer to remove any bites of cinnamon stick which
will leave you with a clear cinnamon extract.
5 Label the jar with the date and type of extract to keep track of its freshness.
Continue storing the extract in a cool and dark place.
