Tarragon and Chamomile Infused Vinegar

Yield: 2 cups

Active Time: 2 minutes
Total Time: 3 hours

1/4 c. dried chamomile (if you can’t find it loose, open up a couple packages of chamomile tea)
1 sprig of fresh tarragon
2 c. white wine vinegar

1) Place the chamomile and tarragon sprig into a bottle which has a 2 cup capacity.
2) Add vinegar and cover.
3) Refrigerate for a minimum of 3 hours to allow the flavors to infuse.

Gifting Idea:

Use a clear, tall bottle to showcase the sprig of tarragon and chamomile. For a sophisticated look, use a wine bottle cork for the lid and decorate with a raffia bow. To maximize shelf life, keep refrigerated until ready to enjoy.

To make the bottle a little easier to open, screw an eye bolt into the top of the cork. Eye bolts can be found at any hardware store.
