Lybations in basil, bourbon, cherries, figs, infusion, pineapple, rum, tequila, vodka

Here are some of my favorite infusion combinations:

• Bourbon with cherry, fig, or peach
• Vodka with basil, fennel, or bell peppers
• Gin with chamomile tea, tomato, or cucumber
• Rum with banana, mango, or pineapple
• Tequila with blood orange, habanero, or strawberry

It's simple, just add the flavor of your choice, seal in a container and let stand at room tempurature for 2 days to 2 weeks depending on the strength of flavor desired.

You can turn a classic cocktail into a Lybations masterpiece by using your infusion - for example, a martini made with lavender gin or a Manhattan made with apple-vanilla bourbon.
