Homemade Gourmet Vinegar Flavors

• Flavors
• Gourmet Greek Garlic Herb Vinegar: Combine two sprigs fresh oregano, one sprig fresh basil and one garlic bulb (separated into cloves and peeled) in two cups red wine vinegar.
• Gourmet Apple Cinnamon Vinegar: Combine 1 chopped apple with a handful of cloves and two cinnamon sticks in two cups apple cider vinegar.
• Gourmet Marigold Vinegar: Did you know marigolds are edible flowers? They are! Marigolds have a spicy, citrusy flavor and a marigold vinegar is nice addition to meat marinades and homemade salad dressings. Combine one cup marigold flowers with two cups champagne vinegar.
• Gourmet Hot Pepper Vinegar: Combine one tablespoon peppercorns with five or six jalapeno peppers. Make sure to slit the peppers before adding them to the bottle to really release their juices.
• Gourmet Citrus Mint Vinegar: Combine two springs fresh mint with zest of one lemon (spirals if you can!) plus several lemon slices in two cups apple cider vinegar.

• 16 oz Glass Bottle, stock# 4034-05
