Make Fast - Wait Long Liquor 2 cups sugar (raw sugar is best, white is also fine)

1 liter Vodka (the cheapest available)

2 cups nectar (can use herb extracts, coffee, etc.)

Heat the nectar and sugar until disolved, cool, add the vodka

and store in airtight bottles ... and let it sit for a year. I put a piece of firm fruit in the bottle also. Looks great

and adds to the flavor. I also use jackfruit, lychee, guava

and other tropical fruits growing in my (or neighbors') yard.

A friend made some with anis seeds and it it golden ambrosia!

If these fruit are not available, get a can of fruit in syrup

and mix the syrup with the vodka, adding some of the fruit.

Jackfruit and lychee are very distinctive and delicious.

(For those who like a sweeter, more syrupy liquor, use a little

less vodka or more sugar. This recipe is a little on the tart

side, but after a year on the shelf, it gets as mellow as

as the best. The sweeter ones are a real treat on vanilla Tofutti or other VLF ices.
