Oh my goodness, your gift recipients are the luckiest. I can’t even imagine how terrific these will smell. I just got some containers for homemade gifts today. Actually, I got them at Fishs Eddy, which you might want to visit on your NY trip. It would be a great stop en route to City Bakery, which is right down the street.

I have many friends who would appreciate spirited gifts such as these. My mom and I also decided on handmade gifts this holiday season. Perfect timing, my dear 😉

I gave this as Christmas gifts last year! I’m not a huge fan of the star anise — I think it’s a little overwhelming. I added a couple of cardamom pods, but I love the idea of vanilla.

This looks great and is inspiring me to make holiday gifts! Would you suggest substituting any other fruits in here? Apple? I’m just trying to think of local fruits I can get my hands on right now…

Intriguing holiday idea. I have done fruit infused wines but never liqueurs. I will have to try this out.

Ashley, those are really beautiful. I imagine that the jars sitting in the windowsill must be quite pleasant to look at.

Having made a bay leaf rosolio, limoncello, etc., this past summer, I’d like to encourage your readers to give liqueurs like this a try. They’re incredibly easy to make, but so special to share with friends and loved ones.

I have a bottle of grain alcohol in my bar, just waiting for the perfect ingredients to infuse. I might have to search for some decorative little bottles and start working on presents!
