Zubereitung von Homemade Fruit Liquers
Rinse 2 lbs of your chosen fruit (or a mix!). If using whole fruit, cut into small pieces (approximately 1/2 inch).
Place the prepared fruit in a clean, 1-gallon glass jar. Add 4 cups of high-quality vodka.
Securely cap the jar and store it in a cool, dark place. Gently stir once a week for 2-4 weeks.
After 2-4 weeks, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh metal colander lined with cheesecloth to remove all fruit solids.
Transfer the clear, unsweetened liqueur to a clean, airtight container.
To 3 cups of the unsweetened liqueur, add 1 1/4 cups of granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Let the liqueur age for at least three months in a cool, dark place.
After three months (or longer for a richer flavor), carefully pour the clear liqueur into a new, sterilized bottle.
Taste and add more sugar to your liking if desired.
For the best flavor, allow your liqueur to age for at least 6 months before enjoying. The flavor will continue to develop over time.
