Sloe Gin - Asked for by Leeky

Sloe Gin.

These berries are available around October/November.

This is easy and if I am lead to believe very tasty.

Sloe's - Fresh if you can get.
Sugar
Cheap Super Market Gin.

Measure your Sloe's, about 250g - 500g depending how you like it.
Measure sugar to half of the amount of Sloeberries. i.e. 500g sloe's and 250g sugar.
1 ltr of Gin.

Clean a glass demijohn, prick all your berries with a cocktail stick or sterile pin.
Add to demijohn with sugar and Gin.
Seal and sake.

Once a day shake for a month. Then shake once a month for two months.

You can use Dried Elderberries.
Clean the berries until water is clear.
Put berries in hot water overnight.
Clean berries again and then prick them.

Then carry on as usual.
