Still Spirit Liqueurs - a great holiday gift!
Still spirits makes a complete line of tasty liqueur kits, that are very easy to make,
bottle, label and give to your friends, or serve them yourself.
It takes about 10 minutes to mix these liqueurs. For example, to make the cream based liqueurs, you mix the non-dairy cream pack with a small amount of boiling water to dissolve, pour in about 2 cups of vodka, then pour in the small bottle of flavoring, and fill your bottles.
All of these liqueur kits makes 40 ounces (1.125 liters), enough to fill 3 of our 375 ml bottles. Here are the most popular liqueurs.
Irish Cream - $12.99
This is easily our best seller. It makes a wonderful cream based liqueur, with a nice vanilla flavor, and with a longer shelf life than the commercial examples, for about half the price of Baileys!
Irish Mint Cream - $12.99
Same as the Irish Mint above, but this with the wonderful addition of mint.
Caranilla Cream - $12.99
This cream based liqueur has the flavors of caramel and vanilla blended together. A wonderful holiday treat on a cold day!
Cafelua - $9.99
A dark, sweet liqouor with the rich, bold flavor of Mexican coffee. Similiar to Kahlua.
Herbal Liqueur - $9.99
This herbal liqueur is inspired by Jagermeister. What fun!
Other liqueur kits available:
Italiano
Triple Sec
Hazelnut (Frangelico)
Coffee Maria
Pina Colada Cream
Grande Paris (Grande Marnier)

 Improve your Vodka!
When Making liqueurs, you need to buy Vodka. You could buy a more expensive vodka, but that adds up. A great way to improve inexpensive vodka is to run the vodka through our EZ Filter ($31.99 for the filter housing and carbon filter, $7.99 for replacement carbon filters). This carbon filter is specifically designed to filter distilled alcohol.
We have filtered inexpensive vodka (Potters) through this filter, with significantly improved results. If you drink vodka on a regular basis, this is for you!
