Purchase bourbon vanilla beans. These can be found at either your local health food store or online at places like Bulk Foods. Remove one to two shots of the bourbon from the bottle.

Drink these if you so desire. Use a sharp knife to slip the six vanilla beans in half, exposing the inner fruit and skin. Do this before Step 3 if you drink the two shots.

Drop each bean half into the fifth of bourbon. Put the lid back on the bottle. Store the bourbon bottle in a dark cabinet for at least 3 months.

The longer it sits, the more vanilla taste the bourbon will have. Use as desired for recipes. More.
