Ingredients for Starburst Infused Vokda Lemonade
The ingredient list is nice and short for this recipe. Here’s what you are going to need to make these tasty cocktails:
All the Starburst Options
You have a few options when it comes to your starburst infused vodka. I went with the mini pink starburst because 1) I didn’t have to unwrap them and 2) I knew the pink would be delicious when combined with strawberry lemonade.
But you can use whatever variety you like. You can grab a bag of originals and unwrap all the flavor and proceed with the recipe. You can go with the original minis. You can pick a certain color. It’ll all be delicious my friends.
Make the Infused Vodka
It is SO simple to infuse vodka with fun flavors. All you need is a glass mason jar, vodka and starburst.
Unwrap your starburst candies (or buy the mini unwrapped ones if you’re looking for a shortcut like me). Place them in a mason jar.
Pour the vodka over the starburst, seal the jar and give it a good shake. Leave it in a dark place like a cabinet or your pantry.
Infuse for three days. You can do longer if you want but three days will give you tons of flavor. Shake a few times a day.
Mix Up Your Drinks
Strain out any starburst chunks that may still be hanging aroud in the vodka. Eat them as a boozy snack or toss them.
Fill your favorite cocktail glass with ice then top with vodka and lemonade. Stir with a straw and enjoy.
