To make your own flavored vodka the recipe is surprisingly simple and requires only a few ingredients. According to The Kitchn the mixture ratio is simple, two cups of fruit per two to three cups of vodka that is infused for three to five days. The vodka is safe to drink after because the alcohol content prevents any mold from forming along the fruit.
