Step 1
Add vanilla beans to a sterilized bottle. If the beans are too long for the bottle, cut it in half or thirds as needed.
Step 2
Fill the bottle with your choice of alcohol, leaving about an inch at the top of the bottle.
Step 3
Secure the top of the bottle. Label and shake vigorously.
Step 4
Store in a cool, dry, and dark location for 6 to 8 weeks, shaking once per week. The longer the vanilla extract steeps, the darker and more prominent the vanilla flavor and scent will be.
