I would just make it in small batches and tinker with the amounts of nuts, vodka and sugar until you get the right balance. But I would definitely say that should work. Yeah, it should work okay.

I had a bottle of Trader Vics Macadamia Nut Liquer and would love to learn how to make it! I need another hobby to go with beer making, wine making and vodka infusing!

The almonds were about $4.50 / lb at Trader Joe's and vodka runs about $13.00 per 1.75 litre bottle for a store brand from a local store (Gelson's). I buy sugar in 10 lb. bags from Costco. The cinnamon sticks were very reasonable from Herb Products - bought locally (www.herbproducts.com). I think it works out to somewhere around $8.50 per quart last time I checked. They make unique gifts for holidays or other occasions. With roasted almonds the flavor will be slightly different, but it should be okay.

Couple of questions though - is it a problem if the almonds are not raw? It's pretty hard to get raw these days. Also, just curious on a cost basis. I realize that the point is that this is cool to make your own, but how much do get vs how much you spend? (Assuming you make enough to use up the 2 bottles of vodka and the bottle of brandy.) Thanks. Chris Sounds delicious and looks pretty straight forward. Couple of questions though – is it a problem if the almonds are not raw? It’s pretty hard to get raw these days.
