Homemade Tarragon Vinegar

 

Ingredients:

1 pint mason jar
1 cup fresh French tarragon leaves (4-5, 5″ sprigs)
2 cups white wine vinegar (you can use raw apple cider)

 

Directions:

 

Fill a pint sized mason jar halfway with freshly picked French tarragon leaves. Bruise the leaves a bit to release the essential oils.
