Me too. Very rewarding! What's Loki?

Loki is sort of a catch-all name for various drinks made by ren-faire folk. They are basically flavor concoctions, usually sweet, added to an alcohol base, a bit like a liqueur.

Everybody has favorite closely guarded recipes. My Apathetic Amber tastes like vanilla and cinnamon. I've tried loki that tasted like all kinds of stuff, even apple pie and gingerbread. If you want to give some a try, here's a basic recipe that's been around since dirt to get started, it tastes like Amaretto;

1/2 gallon of Water
One 2lb bag of white Sugar
1/2 cup of Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup of Almond Extract (get real organic extracts, or it will taste funny)
750 ml (one fifth) of Everclear

1. Mix Water and Sugar together in a large pot over a medium heat. Ensure
that all the Sugar melts.
2. Allow to cool completely.
3. Add the Extracts and Everclear.
4. Bottle and store on a dark place for at least a month, three or more preferably. This will produce about a gallon of Loki, so be prepared with enough containers. Don't use plastic bottles!
5. Drink responsibly.
