Vodka Pills


We had read about these the other day, and wanted to see if we would be able to make them. Here they are. This recipe is for a alcohol based syrup, and is neccesary quality as the chemical reation will not occure if the alcohol volume is below a certain percentage. Though, this is really something to work with, the possibilities are really endless. 250 grams of sugar, 84 grams of water and 52.5 grams of Stoli Raspberry is the ratio on these. I made a simple syrup out of the sugar and water, and folded in the alcohol. Once the mixture cooled enough to work with, I poured the liquid centers of my pills into my corn starch mold. The corn starch reacts with the syrup, forming a hard candy outside, but leaves the inside liquid. You have to let the pills set for one day, but after that, you take them out of the corn starch, brush them off, and use them for whatever you wish.
