WHAT YOU GET WITH YOUR KIT: 

HOW TO CRAFT A KILLER STRAWBERRY BASIL SPIRIT WITH THIS KIT:  

• Using the included silicone funnel, fill the bottle to the neck (about 1.5 cups) with your choice of spirit, leaving the included Potion Pouch submerged inside. Here at MixCraft, we love our Vodka—but Gin, Tequila, Rum, or Bourbon are great choices too. Or choose hot water for a custom alcohol-free beverage. 
• Steep your bottle on the counter for 2 days or to taste. If the spirit moves you (See what we did there?) give it a little shake and a grin when you look at it to infuse it with even more love. 
• Chill or freeze. If you like your liquor straight, stop right there, and sip (or shoot?) to enjoy. Feeling fancy? Take it to the next level, and swirl up a custom cocktail. Our Infusion Kit even provides the recipe for our Mix Wizard’s favorite creation. Lost your tag? Don’t get witchy. The "Summer Solstice” recipe is featured on Food Network’s Food.com site. Or search recipe #543270. 
• Re-infuse to craft a second batch ASAP, if desired. Your first infusion made 8 shots or the alcohol for 8 cocktails. The flavors of the second infusion may be less pronounced, but still as tasty. If re-infusing, we recommend doing so ASAP for the fullest flavor. When complete, discard the Potion Pouch. Enjoy your potion within 1 month of infusion. Kit lasts up to 18 months pre-infusion.

MixCraft HQ is in Birmingham, Alabama. MixCraft Potion Pouches are blended, filled, and bottled at Iron City Distillery in Leeds, Alabama.
