Cucumber-Infused Vodka

Gather the ingredients. The Spruce / Crystal Hughes Trim off and discard the ends of the cucumber and peel off the skin. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise. Use a small spoon to scoop out and discard the watery seeds in the center. The Spruce / Crystal Hughes Roughly chop or slice the peeled and seeded cucumber. The Spruce / Crystal Hughes Put the chopped cucumber in a large glass container with a tight-fitting lid. The Spruce / Crystal Hughes Pour the vodka over the cucumber. Seal the jar and let sit in a cool, dark space for at least three days and up to two weeks (any longer and the vodka will take on a slightly bitter taste). The Spruce / Crystal Hughes Strain the vodka back into its original bottle or another clean bottle. Discard or eat what can now be considered the "pickled" cucumber whose flavor was infused into the vodka. The Spruce / Crystal Hughes
