Place zest into your #2-fl. oz glass bottle{}. Add @vodka{2%oz}, filling up to the neck of the bottle. Every few days, tilt your bottle upside down to gently mix the liquid inside. After 5-6 weeks, you have extract! (I think with citrus peels the acid (and alcohol bath), it’s probably safe to leave the peels inside the bottle like a vanilla bean for re-fill purposes. If you don’t feel comfortable doing this, take it out!)
