Second Infusion – Add Coffee and Peppermint
Shown below is a shot of the ingredients for the second infusion: infused spirits, coffee and peppermint leaves.

Shown below is a shot of the ingredients for the 2nd infusion measured out and ready to add to the jar. Note: Set aside the peppermint leaves for now. Only add the coffee, then wait for 3 weeks to allow the coffee to macerate, then add the peppermint leaves, then macerate for an additional week. If peppermint leaves are macerated too long, then they can get bitter.

Shown below is a shot of the ingredients that have been added and shaken for the second pass.
