Zubereitung von Cinnamon Extract

Clean and sterilize a tight-fitting, 1-cup glass jar (taller than the cinnamon sticks).
Add 1/2 cup vodka (or other high-proof alcohol) to the jar.
Add 4 to 6 cinnamon sticks (approximately 2-3 inches total length). Adjust the amount of cinnamon based on the desired intensity.
Seal the jar tightly.
Store the jar in a dark, cool, and dry place (like a pantry or cabinet) for 3 to 4 months. The longer it infuses, the richer and more complex the flavor will become! (Minimum 3 months).
After 3 to 4 months (or longer!), carefully strain the extract through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the cinnamon sticks.
Store the extract in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one year.
Use 1/2 cup of extract per recipe as directed, or experiment for your desired flavor intensity.
