HOW TO MAKE VANILLA EXTRACT

First, pour out two shots of vodka from the bottle and reserve for another use. This will allow room for the beans. Next, use a sharp knife to cut a slice in each vanilla pod in half vertically, leaving both sides attached. Drop split vanilla beans into the bottle of alcohol.
