All you need to make this minty schnapps at home is four ingredients, including inexpensive vodka, and an empty bottle to store it in. This is a recipe that was created for More Top Secret Recipes many years ago but didn't make it into the final cut. Now it has a home.

This is the freshest tasting Schnapps you will ever taste and so simple to make. After it cools off keep it in the refridgerator and YUM!!!!! Ice cold schnapps whenever you want a shot of it! I use peppermint oil in place of the extract and it just takes a few drops. Great recipe!

As good as it gets! Taste's exactly like the real. And gets you quite drunk like the real one too.
