Make cocktails like a professional mixologist with our Hail Caesar Cocktail Infusion Kit.  Our kits are suitable for holiday celebrations and all types of entertaining, and for simply enjoying anytime you like! Take the stress out of entertaining by preparing your infusions ahead of time.

No matter what time of year it is, we believe our cocktail infusions will evoke memories of tropical getaways and warm summer days. We think you'll agree they are equally as good sitting around a campfire! You will find a mix of delicious garlic and dill pickle flavours, and a hint of heat in our Hail Caesar Cocktail Infusion Kit. If you love cocktails or you are looking for the ideal gift for a cocktail lover, our Hail Caesar Cocktail Infusion Kit is sure to please.

Ingredients:

Each infusion kit comes with one food grade infusion bag, dehydrated dill pickle, dehydrated garlic scapes, dehydrated dill, celery, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon and lime slices and spices. Also included is a package of rim salt. We always use only the freshest ingredients and never use any preservatives.

Directions:

A one litre glass jar with a tight-fitting lid makes an ideal container for infusing. We like to use a mason jar. You could also recycle a one litre pickle jar if you like. Just be certain it is scrupulously clean.

  1. Put the infusion bag with it’s contents into your glass container. Set the bag of garnishes aside for later use.
  2. Add 2 cups of Your Favourite Vodka or Tequila to the infusion vessel, making certain the infusion bag is fully covered. If it is not covered, add a little additional alcohol until the bag is submerged.
  3. Close the jar with the lid and set it on your counter for 3 days. Be sure to give the jar a shake a few times a day to be certain flavours are dispersing in the liquid.
  4. After 3 days has passed, remove the infusion bag. We suggest placing the bag in a fine mesh strainer over a bowl. Squeeze the contents of the infusion bag to release any liquid.
  5. Remove the bag from the strainer and discard, then pour the contents of your jar into the strainer to remove any bits of the spices that may have escaped the jar.
  6. Wash your jar and pour the infused liquid back into the jar.
  7. Put the infused alcohol into the refrigerator until ready to use.

Storage:

Your Hail Caesar Cocktail infusion will keep in the fridge for 4 months and will make 8 – 10 cocktails, depending on how strong you make them.

Serving Suggestion:

Rim a tall glass, put 3 or 4 cubes of ice into the glass and then pour over a 2 oz shot of Hail Caesar Cocktail infusion. Top with your favorite Clamato juice and a few dashes of Tabasco and Worcestershire.  For the ultimate experience, garnish with Red Bluff pickled Garlic Scapes, an Asparagus Spear and a Dill Pickle.

Mocktails anyone? All our infusion kits make delicious mocktails for those times when you prefer a Zero Alcohol beverage.  We suggest you infuse your kit in your favourite sparkling water or juice and then top with additional sparkling water or juice.

What's Cooking?

Can I use my pepper jelly in cooking?

Yes, by all means! Pepper jelly makes an incredible glaze for meats, fish and vegetables. Try brushing pepper jelly on a slab of seasoned salmon before baking it in a 425F oven for about 10 minutes, (depending on the thickness of your fish). When it is done, run it under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes to finish.

What can I do with the little bit of pepper jelly I have left in my jar?

Make a quick vinaigrette to dress up a simple salad of leafy greens by adding a little oil, vinegar, salt and pepper to the remaining pepper jelly. Add a few berries or some seeds and toss to coat everything lightly before serving.

Can I bake with pepper jelly?

Absolutely! Get creative in your kitchen. Try making a sharp cheddar shortbread thumbprint cookie and fill the center with any of our pepper jellies for a sweet and savory appetizer.

Or even easier, line mini tart tins with ready made puff pastry, add a small cube of cream cheese to each tin and top with a teaspoon of pepper jelly. Bake according to the directions on your puff pastry box.
