Good quality vanilla and a good price point
A few drops in a tall glass of milk with a tablespoon of monk fruit and you have a nice vanilla milkshake. Or whip it into heavy cream again with monk fruit, freeze it and you have keto friendly vanilla ice cream

McCormick's Vanilla extract is simply the best.
Of all the vanilla extracts I have tried, McCormick Vanilla Extract comes out on top for the following reasons: 1.) Price. Let's face it, vanilla is expensive in almost every form. This product remains affordable. I grew up using this, and after trying all the others, I keep returning. 2.) Value. You cannot buy GOOD vanilla at this price anywhere. The is a 16 oz (pint) bottle for $20! Find me another good brand at this excellent price! 3.) Consistency. This vanilla, as I understand, is a blend of the world's various vanilla beans. As each variety has its own unique flavor, McCormicks blend remains consistent. You cannot tell the difference between bottles, which speaks highly of the consistency. The scent is heavenly and complex. It does NOT smell boozy. 4.) Alcohol content, yeah it's there. It's not overpowering and the vanilla really comes through, not the alcohol. 5. Flavor: the flavor is consistent and predictable. No surprises. The bottle is now plastic, which I have not noticed affects the taste. I actually dropped it (closed) and it did not break. The flip-top lid stays closed. These are the reasons I keep coming back to this brand. Believe me, you can spend a LOT more for a lesser product.

This vanilla is the Beyoncé of baking extracts – iconic, smooth, and always on key.
Let me start by saying: not all vanilla extracts are created equal. Some are watery frauds that taste like disappointment and lies. But McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract? She walks in, smells amazing, and immediately upgrades every baked good like she's been doing this for generations (because she has). The moment you open the bottle, it hits you – that rich, warm, sweet smell that makes your soul hum “Cookies are coming.” It’s not overly sweet, not fake, and absolutely zero chemical after-shock. Just pure, honest-to-goodness vanilla that whispers to your inner pastry chef, "You’ve got this." I’ve used this in cakes, cookies, pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, coffee, and once during a particularly emotional banana bread breakdown. Every time, it delivers that rich, mellow warmth that only real vanilla can bring. Even my dog stares longingly when I start mixing it into things. And let’s talk strength: this stuff is potent. You don’t need to pour half the bottle in to get results. Just a teaspoon is enough to make your entire kitchen smell like a grandma’s hug and a Pinterest board had a baby. Yes, it’s pricier than the imitation stuff—but that imitation extract might as well be brown water in a tuxedo. McCormick is the real deal. You are paying for quality, consistency, and the confidence of knowing your baked goods won't taste like regret. Also: I once ran out and tried using “vanilla flavoring” from a generic brand. My cookies came out tasting like soap and broken dreams. Never again. The bottle is well-sealed, easy to pour (even when your hands are sticky from dough), and small enough to store anywhere—but don’t be fooled by the size. This tiny titan will last a long time and leave a trail of deliciousness wherever it goes. Final thoughts? If you're serious about baking, or just want your Saturday pancakes to taste like they were kissed by angels, stop messing around with fakes. McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract is the only way. It doesn’t just flavor your food. It brings joy to your kitchen. Buy it. Sniff it. Bake with it. Rule the world one cupcake at a time.

Shake well before using
This is a pretty good price for vanilla, especially compared to the little bottles you see in the supermarket. However, be aware that the vanilla grounds tend to settle on the bottom, so be sure the shake the bottle before using it. And here's a little tip: instead of removing the safety seal, just poke a pinhole in it from the spout. Now you can easily squeeze out precise quantities of vanilla. Update: I am changing my rating from 5 to 4 stars, not because there is anything wrong with this product, but because I have found something much better. I bought this and two other bottles of vanilla at the same time: an organic Rodelle 4-oz bottle, and a Simply Organic 4-oz bottle. I'll give my thoughts on how they compare. All three are okay, and this one is the best deal as far as price per fluid ounce, but one stood out about the others and it was not this one. McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract-16 OZ McCormick is the brand you can buy at any grocery store, and it tastes the same here just in a bigger bottle (the bottle is plastic, FYI: both of the below organic ones come in glass.) If you just need a large amount of vanilla of reliable quality for a low price, this is a good deal. If you're making something fancy and special though, by all means spring for the next item below: the superior flavor is worth it. Simply Organic Pure Vanilla Extract Certified Organic, 4-Ounce Glass Bottle This organic vanilla is phenomenal. I would go out of my way to buy it again, because of how rich and creamy it tastes. I go through a good bit of vanilla, and I really appreciate the smooth flavor here. Absolutely delicious. Rodelle Organics Pure Vanilla Extract-Bourbon, 4 Ounce This is the other organic vanilla bottle I tried, and I honestly don't have much to say about it. It tastes like vanilla and it's pretty good, but nothing worth writing home about or picking up specifically. Its flavor is about the same as the McCormick non-organic bottle. So that's about the size of it. There's nothing wrong with this (or the Rodelle bottle) by any means, the Simply Organic vanilla just beats them on flavor.

I ordered it from Italy ! Great product liked I remembered!! Shipping time with a 13 day delay but unfortunately caused by the Italian laws . Certainly I will order it again as soon as I'll finish it , waited 23 days but completely worth the time and money !! 😄

I only gave three stars because after waiting three months it arrived. Huge disappointment. I know extract is pricey due to the length of time it take to make. I will make my own. I opened the bottle and my nose was assaulted with an awful pungent odor, so strong I did not even dare use it. I got over myself and used it for an iced coffee, yuck...

Me alegre al encontrarlo en Amazon
