Ingredients
Scale
For the Peeps Vodka Infusion
- 4 Bunny Peeps marshmallow candy (Yellow)
- 3/4 cup Whipped Vodka (6 ounces)
For the Martini
- 1/2 cup Lemon Liquor (4 ounces)
- 3/4 cup Sweet and Sour mix (6 ounces)
- Peeps for garnish
- Sugar sprinkles for rimming glasses
Instructions
- Infuse the Vodka: Place the 4 Yellow Bunny Peeps into a 12-ounce Mason jar and pour the whipped vodka over the Peeps.
- Refrigerate and Shake: Tightly screw on the jar lid and place it in the refrigerator for 24 hours. During this time, shake the jar vigorously 4 to 6 times to help dissolve the Peeps into the vodka.
- Strain the Vodka: After 24 hours, the Peeps will not be fully dissolved. Strain the mixture to remove any remaining Peeps bits. Pour the infused vodka into a glass pitcher.
- Mix the Cocktail: Add the lemon liquor and sweet and sour mix to the Peeps vodka in the pitcher. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Prepare the Glasses & Serve: Rim the martini glasses with sugar sprinkles for a festive touch. Pour the Peeps martini mixture into the glasses and garnish each with a Peeps marshmallow as decoration. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Use a Mason jar or similar airtight container for best results during infusion.
- Shaking multiple times a day helps the Peeps dissolve more thoroughly, enhancing the vodka flavor.
- Rimming the glasses with sugar sprinkles adds a sweet, crunchy texture and colorful presentation.
- For a stronger infusion, you can let the Peeps soak for up to 48 hours, shaking periodically.
- Make sure to strain thoroughly to avoid marshmallow bits in the final cocktail.
