Blackberry & crab apple vodka or gin (gf/vg)
There are lots of recipes for fruit infused vodka or gin and all of them are delicious but this is one of my personal favourites - smells like blackberry and apple crumble in a glass!- 75cl bottle vodka or gin
- 225g blackberries (washed)
- 225g crab apples or cooking apples
- 200g caster sugar
- Very large jam or preserving jar
- Chop the washed apples into chunks small enough to fit into a lidded jar.
- Put all the fruit into the jar and add the vodka/gin and the sugar.
- Screw the lid on the jar and shake to start dissolving the sugar. Store in a dark place.
- Shake every day for a few days until all the sugar is dissolved. Now leave in the dark for 3-6 months. Decant the mix through a sieve into a jug and return for flavoured vodka / gin to the dark cupboard for another 3-6 months or as long as you can bear to keep it un-opened.
