Crimson Spice Espresso Martini. A cozy twist on a classic favorite, and the perfect sip for sweater weather.

This one comes from the Crimson Spice by Jill Collection. It's smooth and bold, with a little warm vanilla spice. The secret is our Crimson Spice Vanilla Extract, a handcrafted blend of Madagascar vanilla beans, rooibos, honeybush, cinnamon, crystallized honey, and a touch of ginger. Each sip brings cozy, earthy sweetness and autumn warmth. It's fall in a cocktail.

It serves one and starts with vodka, coffee liqueur, and freshly brewed espresso. Waiting on your Crimson Spice Extract? Use another extract you love, like Winter Spice, Chocolate Vanilla, or Salted Caramel.

Meet the Mexican Cribbiana vanilla bean, one of the rarest vanilla beans on Earth. V. cribbiana is a unique species that started out in Brazil and is now grown in Veracruz, Mexico. These Grade A beans are plump and oily, with only 4-5 beans per ounce. Each one is 3-4 inches long, dark brown and packed with vanilla caviar. They're a lovely choice for homemade vanilla extract and gourmet baking. This one's on sale right now. Retail orders ship immediately. Link in the comments πŸ™‚

What's a birthday gift that's still being enjoyed decades from now?

Birthdays are about celebrating a person: who they are, what they love, and the moments you've shared. The best gifts don't just mark a moment. They become one, remembered every single time they're used.

A homemade vanilla extract gift box is exactly that kind of gift. Start with the birthday person's palate. What flavors do they love, and what desserts make them light up? The beans you choose shape the entire character of their finished extract. For an extra personal touch, you can even pick a vanilla bean blend that corresponds to their birth month.

We'll post a link in the comments to the full guide on building one πŸ™‚

DIY Strawberry & Vanilla Extract

Here's a fruit extract that works any time of year, and it makes a lovely gift for the holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, wedding and baby showers and more.

All you need is 1oz of freeze-dried strawberries, 8oz of vodka (70-100 proof), and 1 vanilla bean. Crumble the berries into a glass jar, cover them with the spirit, and add the vanilla bean folded or tied in a knot. It makes roughly 4-8oz of strawberry extract, and you can use it in any recipe in place of, or blended with, your vanilla extract.

The bag is 10 ounce, 100% cotton twill with durable cotton-web handles, and it's machine washable, so it's easy to keep clean. It measures 14"h x 14"w x 3"d, about 588 cubic inches, which leaves plenty of space for several bottles of spirits or anything else you need.

What happens when you infuse real raw honey with vanilla beans?

The aromatic compounds from the beans meld with honey's natural sweetness. The result is a warm, floral flavor with hints of caramel and a subtle earthiness. It's lovely drizzled over yogurt, stirred into tea, or used as a natural sweetener in baking.

Unlike processed honey, raw honey keeps its natural enzymes, antioxidants and vitamins, so you get a gourmet ingredient that still holds onto what makes honey special.

Vicki's Hazelnut Sugar

What do you do with the toasted hazelnuts from your extract? You make hazelnut sugar, of course! When Vicki changed her hazelnut extract out after 6 weeks, she didn't want to throw out the hazelnuts, so she thought about infusing them into sugar.

Her recipe roasts the drunken hazelnuts with drunken cinnamon sticks and the Madagascar vanilla beans you've saved, then grinds them and mixes them into sugar. She hopes you enjoy it. Find the recipe in the comments πŸ™‚

Meet The Feliz, our premium 3-bean vanilla blend. It brings together two vanilla species in one pouch: Grade A V. tahitensis from Sentani, Indonesia, and V. planifolia from Uganda and Madagascar.

If you make your own extract, blending species and origins is a lovely way to build depth, and you get to sample all three regions without buying full quantities of each. These are hand-selected Grade A beans, ready for extract making and gourmet baking.

The Feliz is on sale right now. Link in the comments πŸ™‚

Happy Friday Everyone!

It's time for FREE BEANS FOR ONLINE KINDNESS!

For all of our seasoned followers and group members, you know what to do and we are excited to see who you nominate. (Group members in our Facebook Group, "Making Vanilla Extract by VanillaPura" can nominate someone here and in our group as well.)

For all of our new friends that started following our page this week, here's how this vanilla giveaway works:

This is a weekly giveaway that we have done in our Facebook Group since 2021. We have given free vanilla nearly 2,000 times to super sweet people! We are now offering it here in our page as well! Vanilla beans create sweetness, so we celebrate all things sweet at VanillaPura. Free Beans for Online Kindness is all about sweetness, kindness and strangers helping strangers. It's about celebrating online kindness in a world that is becoming increasingly unkind, especially online.

In this giveaway, free vanilla beans are given to someone that YOU nominate! This giveaway not only encourages and rewards online kindness, but it also breaks down barriers and creates friendships.

Nominating a friend or even a stranger for their kindness is a selfless gesture. Being nominated by someone for the kindness you have shown is also a humbling feeling. It reminds us all that with something as small as a vanilla bean, we can brighten the world around us. And we could all use a little more brightness in our world.

So, in the spirit of vanilla bean sweetness, please take a few seconds to nominate someone you know, or even someone you don't, who has shown online kindness to you in any way this week.

To nominate someone, tag them in the comments under this post by simply typing their name. (Type their name using the @ symbol first, then type their full name with no spaces and you will see their name pop up in a link. Click the name link, and you're all set!)

That's it. It's easy and it's a great way to make someone's day!

We will award a $25.00 gift card to vanillapura.com for FREE on Sunday to someone who is nominated in the comments of this post.

You cannot nominate yourself. This giveaway is about kindness and selflessness towards others.

We hope all of you are having a great day and we are excited to see who you nominate this week!
