Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Sweet Creme de Vie.
Step 1
Start by bringing the water, sugar, and anise seeds to a gentle boil in a saucepan. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the mixture thickens into a syrupy consistency. Afterward, remove it from the heat and strain it through a fine mesh to separate the seeds, allowing the syrup to cool slightly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks until they turn a light yellow color. Gradually add in the rum, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Stir everything together until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Now, gently fold in the cooled syrup mixture, ensuring it blends seamlessly with the other ingredients.
Step 3
Once your mixture is ready, pour it into decorative bottles. Seal them tightly and place them in the refrigerator. For the best flavor, let it chill for at least 6 hours, but if you can wait longer, the taste will only improve!
How to Serve
Serve chilled in small glasses, or use it as a delightful addition to cocktails. It also makes a wonderful gift when bottled beautifully!
How to Store
Store in the refrigerator for up to a month. Shake well before serving to mix any settled ingredients.
