So I've been cooking for a while and i wanted something a little more interesting rather than just cookies, brownies, firecrackers etc. So I came across this recipe for Amaretto:

3 cups sugar
2 1/4 cups water
1 pint vodka (16 oz.)
3 tablespoons almond extract
1 tablespoon vanilla

1. Combine sugar and water in a large pan. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce Heat. Let simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from stove.

2. Add vodka, almond extract and vanilla. Stir to mix. Store in airtight jar.

Now my question for the more experienced chefs out there is, what is the best way of extracting the thc into alcohol? I've heard and read from many sites that you can leave your bud in alcohol and the cannabinoids will leach out into the alcohol over a period of 2-4 weeks is this true and if not please show me a safe method of extraction.
