Directions
Chop the hazlenuts to release the flavor of the nut and add to vodka, vanilla bean, and allspice.
Age for 2 weeks, shaking lightly occasionally.
Strain and filter until clear.
Add sugar syrup, if desired, and age for an additional 3 weeks.
Ready to serve. Makes a nice gift and is nice over ice cream as well as an aperitif.
Try using pistachios which also make a delicious liqueur.
If flavor is too weak, add more nuts and resteep a week before adding the sugar syrup.
