FROZEN FESTIVE VODKA OR TEQUILA BOTTLES WITH HERBS AND BERRIES
Another GREAT Jamie Oliver recipe, and one that I am preparing for New Year's Eve! Jamie says you can use any spirits or liquor, but he suggestes vodka and tequila in his recipe. These bottles look SO festive and pretty, I plan to use holly, berries, bay leaves, fruit slices, ivy and woody herbs for my bottles this year. DO check that the liquor bottle fits INSIDE the plastic water bottle first! This recipe idea for serving liquor originates from Scandinavia. (Prep time is for freezing the bottles.)

Steps:
- Cut the top off a 1 litre plastic bottle, pop a 700ml bottle of vodka, tequila or whatever you fancy in there. Fill inside the plastic bottle with water then shove leaves, sprigs of herbs, holly branches and berries, and sliced fruits all around the side. Stand this carefully in the freezer and leave it for a few hours so everything freezes around the bottle.
- When you're ready to serve it, simply run the sleeve quickly under a tap then slide it off. You'll have a perfect ice wrap around the bottle to keep it cold for the night - and look gorgeous!
Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe herbs and berries for the best flavor.
- Use a variety of herbs and berries to create a unique and flavorful infusion.
- Be sure to wash the herbs and berries thoroughly before using them.
- Pack the herbs and berries tightly into the vodka or tequila bottles.
- Store the bottles in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks before serving.
- When you're ready to serve, simply pour the infused vodka or tequila over ice and enjoy.
Conclusion:
These frozen festive vodka or tequila bottles with herbs and berries are a delicious and easy way to add some holiday cheer to your next party. They're also a great gift idea for friends and family. With a little planning, you can create a variety of unique and flavorful infusions that will impress your guests. So get creative and have fun!
