I harvested and dried the kinnikinnick from the wild over the summer. I then filled 80 proof organic vodka to cover the herbs. I shook the jar and stored it in a dark cabinet. Then strained it.

I'm pursuing SKIP to inherit property, check it out for yourself: SKIP book or maybe you're my Otis/Otessa match?
