The weather this morning was not beach weather, not at all, so we had to tweak our plans just a bit.

We had two more people join us, so off to the ferry for a 9am arrival, scooped them up, then back to the house.

In anticipation of making blueberry vodka, we needed fresh, wild blueberries that grow on the property - an easy enough task, although they are SMALL.

There was no way we could fill up our buckets

Of course part of making excellent blueberry vodka is to use LOCAL vodka, Triple 8 Vodka

And, the finished product:

I think we will be tasting more today :-)

The Maine blueberry crop is going to be sweet but smaller because of less rain. Vodka... don't use it to list, market, sell real estate. Designed for open front porch sips, laughing with your family and friends.

Great idea. Can we do the same with blueberries that are easier to find?

Carol, do you make other flavors of vodka or just blueberry?

Jul 22, 2011 04:04 PM

Chris - When you make it yourself, it's not as sweet as the brands you buy.

Al - This is the first time I've done it, so I'll have to ask what other flavors they do!
