Use the best quality vodka you can afford, as it will significantly impact the final flavor of the liqueur.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. If you prefer a less sweet liqueur, start with ¾ cup of sugar and add more to taste after the infusion process.
For a more complex flavor profile, consider adding a vanilla bean or a few lemon or orange peels to the jar during the infusion process. Remove the additions before straining.
The liqueur will continue to improve with age. After bottling, store it in a cool, dark place for several months to allow the flavors to meld and mellow.
