Making Vanilla Extract at home is very easy, it needs just 2 ingredients.

1.vanilla beans 2.alcohol rum brandy or vodka.

Mix both and shake well and wait for the it to age.You will need good quality vanilla beans and it took me sometime to hunt for it and finally found it online.The liquor you you either use rum or brandy or vodka.I used vodka and its going to be almost a month and the flavor is so good now itself, the more you give resting time the more you the flavor you will get.

The vanilla beans continue to flavor the liquid it is submerged in and the alcohol acts as a preservative.Actually you can add the vanilla bean as such too but I cut it into pieces so that it gets fully submerged inside the liquid.
