 Zorba's Vanilla Extract
 
 
5   Vanilla beans*  
 
4 oz    Vodka (a step or two below top shelf)  
 
1 1. Get a bottle that is 4 to 6 oz.
2 Buy Vanilla beans (my favorite source is Olive Nation - Inexpensive beans from Madagascar. They are the best.)
3 Slit the beans lengthwise leaving about ¼ inch at the top and bottom so that the bean does not slit wide open.
4 Put in 5 beans for every 4 oz of vodka.
5 Fill the bottle with vodka to cover the bean completely.
6 Store in a cabinet for 2 months. This will make the most vanilla vanilla that you have ever tasted.
