Having collected far too many Strawberries at the Pick Your Own, I decided to continue with my exploits with fruit infused booze and set about making some Strawberry Vodka.  The good thing about this recipe is, it requires just two ingredients and a little patience! It only needs between 3 – 7 days to ‘mature’ (and that really depends how strawberry-ee you want it!)

Strawberry Vodka (Makes 750ml)

Ingredients

750ml Cheap Vodka
600g Strawberries, washed and chopped into quarters

Method

• Wash and Sterilise a 1 Litre Kilner Jar (or equivalent)
• Once cool add the Vodka and Strawberries
• Screw the lid on tightly, shake it up a little
• Leave in a cool dark place for between 3 – 7 days
• When ready, sterilise a glass bottle
• Strain the vodka through a coffee filter to remove all the tiny fibres
• Pour into the bottle and seal until ready to use

This is great neat over ice, or topped with a little prosecco. You could even make up a sugar syrup and use it in a long vodka, the choices are endless!
