Boozed + Infused

Infusing liqueurs at home with inspiring and seasonal ingredients

About

How do you capture the ripe flavors of seasonal ingredients and savor them throughout the year? Some people preserve through canning summer’s bounty. Others freeze their produce and wares. Sisters Eileen and Alicia prefer to infuse the flavors into boozy concoctions and sip their way to bliss.

We hope you will  join us in our trials and tribulations infusing local and seasonal ingredients into liqueurs and cordials.

Alicia (left) lives in Portland, Oregon.  Eileen (right) is based in Venice, California.

    Really enjoying your blog! My boyfriend is constantly making syrups and concoctions for cocktails, you’ve given me some great ideas to tell him! He’s been making a prune infused liquor for a drink this week. I look forward to seeing what you do next. Feel free to follow my blog too (although i’m still in the early stages!) as I do reviews for food and drink in LA. I notice you live in Venice. if you ever find yourself in Santa Monica, head to Bar Chloe (on 2nd and broadway) on a Friday or Saturday night, ask for Greg and say you follow the ‘fussy ones’ blog and he’ll make you a great cocktail :)

      Thanks! We are so glad you like the blog. We are still in the early stages as well, and finally set up the Facebook page. We will sometimes have preliminary info about what we are infusing before it makes it to the blog. And thanks for the tip about Bar Chloe!

    Hi ladies! I found your blog on the punk domestics site and I can’t get enough. I live in Olympia (an hour south of Seattle) and have been making bitters and infusions for about a year now. I can’t wait to try the chocolate bourbon! In addition to working with tasty and often local fruits, veggies and herbs, I’ve found flowers to be at the top of my list. Some folks don’t care for floral flavors, but I LOVE em. I harvested wild violets last year and made a violet bitters. Rose cordial is fantastic. Less is more with lavender, but still tasty. And elderflower is a chart topper. Anyway, I’m excited to follow along with your boozy experiments and appreciate the inspiration! Cheers!
