This spiced vodka cream liqueur does not require too many ingredients. But it will require some time for infusion and to gain some strength in the flavour. But you’ll definitely need to do a 10 minute or so of cooking. Let’s see how!
Vodka, as we all know, is a distilled alcoholic beverage with origins in Poland, Russia and Sweden. It’s mainly made by water and ethanol, with sometimes an addition of flavourings.
Traditionally, though vodka is made by distilling liquid from fermented cereal grains. More recently, though, potatoes have been used too.

What about the history of vodka?
There is very little material on the history of vodka.
In Poland, vodka was produced since the early middle ages. And the first written proof of vodka comes as early as the 1400s. Initially, the vodka was used as a medicine rather than as a drink itself.
Nowadays, aside from the trillion brands and flavourings available, vodka is also used in cooking.
First of all, you will need light muscovado sugar, cinnamon sticks, cardamom pods, cloves, star anise and nutmeg. These will be, together with water, the ingredients you will need for the infusion part. Then you will also need some vodka, caramel and single cream.
The whole recipe is mostly off-hands work than hands-on. You will be cooking for literally 10 minutes, and aside from the mixing and pouring, you will be free to do whatever your heart might desire.
