Best Answer

"Pure vanilla extract" contains vanilla, water and alcohol. Some companies may also add sugar, corn syrup, colors or stabilizers. The water and alcohol (ethyl alcohol) are from the extraction method which is similar to percolation. In the U.S. the amount of alcohol is regulated by law at 35% of the total volume. Because you asked for elements, I should say that vanilla extract does contain various vitamins and minerals in very small quantities, along with sugar and fat. Which ones and how much would depend upon the specific type of vanilla bean used to make the extract.

Most recipes call for 2-3 split vanilla beans added to a cup of liquor (vodka, brandy or light rum are commonly used)

Commercial vanilla extracts can contain a variety of additional ingredients for color, preservation, or flavoring.
