I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot with this recipe. Of all the cocktails and mocktails I’ve made on the site, and I’ve made a lot, this is one of my very favorites. Homemade Strawberry Shortcake Vodka is the ultimate in Summer fun, tart, simple, and DELICIOUS. Splash it in with club soda for a quick and fun cocktail, or layer it with juices and ice cream for Spiked Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Floats (see below!!). When I tell you I crave those floats morning noon and night, I DO! If you haven’t tried making your own liqueurs, they are a must. It’s so much easier than you’d think, making the perfect homemade gift, or just affordable alcohol to keep in your fridge for the fun times. I’m obsessed!

I’m beyond thrilled and honored to be partnering with Everclear® to come up with fun infusions this year. (Remember the amazing Peach Tea Vodka I made last month??) I had no idea just how crazy easy it is to make Everclear transform into fun flavored vodkas, liqueurs, or schnapps. Everclear has created a GORGEOUS website, Make It Your Own by Everclear®, where they have compiled tons of amazing recipes for infusions; everything and every flavor you can think of (except for Strawberry Shortcake Vodka…until now!). SO FUN. Everclear® is a 190 proof grain alcohol with no taste, making it the perfect clean slate for flavors. It’s fast to pull flavor from the ingredients you’re adding and you don’t even need much! It should be diluted 1:1 with filtered water because of its strength (this is IMPORTANT). One bottle goes a long way, making this SO cost effective. The possibilities are endless, not to mention fun! As soon as you taste the tart/sweet/perfect flavor of this Strawberry Shortcake Vodka you’ll be a believer. Making your own vodka is the way to go!
