Tonga Vanilla Extracted in Orange Vodka | 3.75 oz.

A Bright, Citrus-Infused Baking Essential

Bring a sun-drenched brightness to your kitchen with the Tonga Vanilla Extracted in Orange Vodka. This isn't just an extract; it’s a craft infusion where Vain Foods hand-makes their own orange liqueur from top-shelf vodka and organic orange peels, then uses it to extract bold, gorgeous vanilla beans grown on the island of Tonga. The result is a vibrant, citrus-forward flavor that provides a stunning counterpoint to the natural richness of vanilla.

The Flavor Profile

Tongan vanilla beans are known for being bold and sweet, often carrying unique undertones of red wine and raisin. When paired with the zesty brightness of fresh orange spirits, the flavor profile becomes exceptionally well-rounded:

• Primary Notes: Bright citrus zest, sweet cream, and floral vanilla.
• Undertones: Subtle hints of raisin, red wine, and warm spice.
• Finish: A clean, crisp citrus finish that cuts through rich ingredients.

Why This Blend is Unique

• House-Made Spirit: Unlike many commercial "flavored" extracts, Vain Foods infuses their own vodka with organic orange peels to ensure an all-natural, vibrant citrus punch without artificial oils or chemicals.
• The Bonus Bean: Every 3.75 oz amber bottle contains a whole Tongan vanilla bean. This bean continues to infuse the spirit over time, and once the liquid is gone, the bean can be used for vanilla sugar or scraped for its seeds.
• Citrus Pairing Power: This is the ultimate "secret ingredient" for any recipe that already calls for lemon, lime, or orange zest, as it amplifies those flavors rather than competing with them.

Creative Kitchen Uses

• Brighten Your Baking: A game-changer for blueberry scones, orange ricotta pound cake, lemon madeleines, or corn muffins.
• Savory Surprises: Add a teaspoon to a citrus vinaigrette for summer salads or use it in a marinade for roasted salmon or poultry.
• Summer Sips: Elevate a white wine sangria, enhance a margaritas, or stir into sparkling water with a splash of agave for a refreshing mocktail.
• Custards & Creams: Perfect for fruit tarts, panna cotta, or a zesty whipped cream topping for fresh berries.
