Homemade Amaretto

Step 1

In a medium pan, add the water, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugars.

Step 2

Bring the mixture to a boil; if all the sugar has dissolved, remove the pan from the heat. Set aside and let the hot syrup cool for 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

To the cooled mixture, add the vodka, almond extract, and vanilla extract. Mix well, to combine.

Step 4

Pour amaretto into a clean bottle using a funnel. Place cork or a top on the bottle to seal it. Store in pantry or cool, dark place.

Step 5

Enjoy!
