I recently purchased a vodka infuser and have been using to infuse vodka with flavors like rasberry and pineapple. I was wondering if anyone has tried making their own infused rum? I would assume you could make a homemade coconut or pineapple using a light rum. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks-

Where does one buy a vodka infuser? Is there a website?

I got mine from www.infused-vodka.com because I was able to get a smaller one than what I could find in the store. The one I found at Pier One held almost 200 ounces and that would be painful on the ole wallet to try to fill.

This does not answer your question, but it is related...
Appleton Rum was selling their estate brand packaged with a logoed infusion bottle last december. I still see these packages on occasion at liquor stores.

I made some cinnamon infused rum at the prompting of KuKuAhu per the recipe he suggested in this thread.
It came out quite good, dark red in color and the initial taste is very dry but with a smooth aftertaste. As it gets older the cinnamon taste seems to be more subdued but still very much present. When it runs out I will make more!

Glad to hear it Kono. I think that having some homemade items around in your bar makes for interesting drinks. You can put together something truly unique and delicious when you have tailor made liqueurs and syrups on hand.
