Group Buy Rum Vanilla Extract Making Starter Kit - 8oz
If you love the taste of rum and want to incorporate its rich, sugar-based, molasses sweetness into your vanilla extract for use in your favorite desserts, we've got you covered.
In this rum vanilla kit, we have preselected the top 2 vanilla beans that pair perfectly with rum.
Simply choose the vanilla beans that you want and the bottle that you want, and you'll be ready to begin. The only thing that we can't sell you is the rum. You'll have to get that on your own. We recommend rum with no artificial flavorings. Make sure it is between 35% - 50% alcohol (which is 70-100 proof).
What bean should you select? Here's how they smell and taste:
| Ugandan | Bold vanilla, subtle hints of figs and raisins |
| Madagascar | Classic vanilla taste and aroma. Buttery and sweet. |
This kit includes comes in a decorative box with extract instructions on the inside. Each box includes 1oz of vanilla beans and an 8oz glass bottle of your choice. To make your first extract with this kit, follow these 4 simple steps:
- Put all the vanilla beans in the bottle.
- If the beans are too tall, cut them in half (or fold them and insert them into the bottle fold first) to make sure they are fully submerged in the alcohol.
- Fill the bottle with the rum you purchased. Leave a little air on top.
- Close the lid and store the extract in a cool/dark place for 12 months and...giddy-up...your very own homemade vanilla extract!
