Ingredients
Scale
Peep Infused Vodka
- 4 Yellow Bunny Peeps marshmallow candy
- 3/4 cup Whipped Vodka (6 ounces)
Cocktail Mix
- 1/2 cup Lemon Liquor (4 ounces)
- 3/4 cup Sweet and Sour mix (6 ounces)
Garnish
- Peeps marshmallow candy (for garnish)
- Sugar sprinkles (for rimming glasses)
Instructions
- Infuse the Vodka: Place the 4 Yellow Bunny Peeps marshmallow candies into a 12-ounce Mason jar, then pour 3/4 cup (6 ounces) of whipped vodka over the Peeps. This infuses the vodka with the candy’s sweet marshmallow flavor.
- Refrigerate and Shake: Securely screw on the jar lid and place the jar in the refrigerator for 24 hours. During this time, make sure to shake the jar vigorously 4 to 6 times throughout the day to help dissolve the Peeps into the vodka.
- Strain the Infused Vodka: After 24 hours, strain the Peep-infused vodka to remove any remaining marshmallow bits. Pour the strained liquor into a glass pitcher.
- Mix the Cocktail: To the pitcher, add 1/2 cup (4 ounces) lemon liquor and 3/4 cup (6 ounces) sweet and sour mix. Stir well to combine all ingredients smoothly.
- Prepare Glasses and Serve: Rim the martini glasses with sugar sprinkles for a festive touch. Pour the cocktail mixture into the prepared glasses, garnish with Peeps marshmallow candy, and serve immediately to enjoy.
Notes
- Shaking frequently during infusion helps the Peeps dissolve more effectively.
- If you prefer a stronger Peep flavor, you can add more Peeps or extend the infusion time.
- Use yellow Peeps for a bright, spring color or switch to other colors depending on your preference.
- Sugar sprinkles on the rim add visual appeal and extra sweetness.
- Serve chilled for the best taste experience.
