Cooking - Rhubarb Liqueur 🍸 Ingredients: 4 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1 lb) 1 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon lemon zest (from 1 lemon) 2 cups vodka (use a good-quality neutral vodka) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for a warm note) Directions: Prep the rhubarb: Wash the rhubarb well and trim off the leaves (they’re toxic—only use the stalks). Chop into small pieces to maximize flavor extraction. Macerate the fruit: In a large, clean glass jar or bottle, combine the rhubarb, sugar, and lemon zest. Stir or shake gently to coat the rhubarb with sugar. Let it sit for about 24 hours in the fridge or a cool, dark place. The sugar will draw out the juice, creating a syrupy base. Add the alcohol: Pour in the vodka and add vanilla extract if using. S
