So, my husband decided to gift me with a bottle of vodka and a huge bag of Double Bubble (so he could have some of the gum) for my birthday. Yesterday, I was finally able to bring the concoction together. It is incredibly simple.
Ingredients:
- 1 bottle of vodka - (the first time I did this, I used Smirnoff Triple Distilled Vodka, which is 1.14L. This time I used Absolute Vodka at 750ml. I personally prefer Smirnoff when it comes to vodka, but any vodka will work fine.)
- 25 pieces of Double Bubble bubble gum - cut in halves
- Time - 24 hours
You can see that the larger volume of Smirnoff looks a little more diluted. You can always add more gum for a stronger color and flavor, but they are both strongly flavored with 25 pieces already. If I were to use a smaller volume, I would consider using about 20 pieces rather than 25.
Cut in half and toss in a glass jar
In just a few minutes you will see the color start to disperse. I swirl or stir it all around a few times before I leave it set for the night.
The next evening it is very pink!
Return to the bottle or place it in a new container.
That's it!
Bubblegum flavored vodka!
