    I made my toffee vodka on monday, and used one bag of Lidl's fake Werthers for one 75cl bottle of vodka. I thought "it's going to take ages for this stuff to dissolve, even with me vigorously shaking it all the time", so I poured it into my blender and gave it a good whizz until I could only hear the light flutter of crumbs in there instead of the loud churning of the big lumps.

    did it all fit back in the original bottle ????

    we used to sell home made flavored vodkas in the bar i worked in, because we sold so much it was easier for us to do it this way...


    was the bar in torquay by any chance?

    Can I just ask though, if you are heating the vodka, doesn't the alcohol evaporate? I want to have a go, but want to make sure they stay nice and alcoholic lol!

    you only need to warm about 1/4 of a cup so its minimal waste

    Skittles flavour vodka is the best ;) I found one large bag of skittles do a standard 75cl bottle once you have taken enough out to make room for the skittles... (I pour about half out and then top it back up if there is room ;))
    NOTE take the GREEN skittles out - don't use these in this vodka - if you do it'll look a horrid murky brown! If you take them out it'll be a delish red/orange colour :)
    Takes about 2 days for them to dissolve fully :)

    Yummy scrummy!
