Skittle’s vodka is a perfect summer drink and it definitely is a crowd pleaser. So if you’re looking for a new way to taste the rainbow, try making skittle vodka.

Ingredients:

Vodka (try to avoid the cheaper brands)
Skittles (the skittle to vodka ratio is 10 skittles to 1oz (30ml) of vodka)

Optional Items:

5 Bottles (for separate flavors of Skittle Vodka)
Funnel
Tea Towel/Coffee filter/Paper towels

Step By Step Instructions

Step 1

Separate the Skittles according to flavor
You can also mix flavors of Skittles, but leave out the lime and grape ones - tip – they ruin the taste of the final product’s taste.

Step 2

Put the Skittles into the bottles (it’s easier to put the skittles in the bottle first so that you don’t have to pour excess vodka out)
Pour the vodka in
Seal the bottle
Wait for the skittles to dissolve – it usually takes 1 or 2 days, and you can shake the bottle to speed up the process

Step 3

After the Skittles have disolved there will be a white residue on top, strain the fluid to get rid of the white residue.
I’ve found the best way to do this is to filter it through a tea towel
