?There are many recipes for peppermint schnapps, but the most common ingredients are peppermint extract, vodka, and simple syrup.
1. Combine sugar and corn syrup in a 2 quart pan over medium heat. Heat until sugar dissolves, stirring regularly (about 5 minutes).
2. When sugar has dissolved, add vodka and stir well. Remove mixture from heat and cover tighly with lid. Let cool.
3. Add peppermint extract to mixture and pour into a sealable bottle.
Makes 4 cups.
Tidbits
Because of the extreme reduction, I found that the salt in the chicken stock was enough for the recipe. However, if you use a stock that isn't so salty, you may find you need to add extra salt to the soup.
