I like to gift this colorful, cheery and easy recipe for delicious berry vodka in pretty bottles . It’s great served on ice, in little shot glass or in flutes with champagne for an alternative to Kir Royale.
Ingredients
- 2 cups raspberries
- 1 1/2 cup hulled strawberries
- 1 medium grated lemon zest
- 1 cup caster granulated sugar
- 1 vanilla pod halved
- 1 70cl bottle of vodka
Servings: 250ml bottles
Instructions
- Place the berries and the lemon zest with the sugar in a large metal bowl and crush with the back of a wooden spoon. Add the Vanilla pod, mix all and leave to rest and macerate for two hours, until the sugar has dissolved and the fruit has become juicy.
- Spoon the content of the bowl in to a large glass jar and cover with the vodka. Mix well and chill for at least one week in the fridge or up to a month.
- Staring the vodka through a fine sieve, decant into pretty sterilized bottles.
Recipe Notes
The Infused Vodka will keep for up to months in the fridge or 6 months in the freezer. Rose petals are a great addition to the berries and citrus as well.
