I wanna make cheap flavoured vodka.

Try skittles! and polos! And with the skittles, go for the red skittles, yum!

Vodka jelly- dangerous but good (i remember from my drinking days )

Just substitute 1 cup of Vodka for a cup of water. It’s all it takes.

You can substitute 2 cups of water with 2 cups of run\vodka and they are strong, but good.

There is a link to recipes above.

Hope that helps

agree with above post, try sloes or blackberries. I am making blackberry brandy yum yum. Use cheap alcohol but high proof, add about 10ozs sugar per pound of fruit and pint of booze in litre bottle.

Am sure I've read about Werthers Originales being used too, makes a delish Toffee Vodka. I bought some branded toffee vodka last year and it was nice enough to drink neat.

recently I made skittles vodka and can vouch for it! I am not a spirit drinker as it just makes me retch but I made some skittles one and its lovely. Think its because its a lot sweeter now. I would advise like the tope says id to just stick to one colour. I used a big family bag, used the purple and red ones and eat the rest. Did have some trouble straining it though if anyone has tips on that!

freind recommended using pear drops but havent tried it yet. Basically I think you could try it with any hard boiled sweets or hard toffee. I used Lidls cheapo stuff as once it has flavourings i wouldnt be able to tell. Mind you I couldnt to start with either.

Have also made 2 bottles of sloe gin but you can also use vodka. Loads of sloe bushes in the park (above doggy height!) and they were free.

If your making say a couple of litres worth try and get a demijohn from someone as when you put the skittles in it raises the level so just tip it into this until its ready to decant back into the bottles.

Or go to a bottle bank . if you get some with lids on you can sterilize them
