Spiced Rum Extract Vanilla Pairings
While we normally do not recommend flavored spirits for extract making, spiced rum is the clear exception. Blended with natural spices to enhance its flavor, spiced rum was made for holiday vanilla extract. Add a few drops to your egg nog, use it for pumpkin spice...anything and it will deliver a sweet, holiday spice vanilla extract flavor that is like no other. Not every vanilla bean works - so we have assembled our recommended vanilla bean pairings below. It sometimes takes a little longer for a spiced rum extract to be ready. Plan for 18 months, but taste test at 12 months.
