Comment préparer Berry Cordial

Combine 4 cups of mixed berries with 2 cups of water in a 6-8 quart pot.
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 20 minutes, or until the berries have softened and lost their shape.
Carefully pour the berry mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer, pressing firmly to extract as much juice as possible.
Allow the juice to cool completely to room temperature.
Measure the quantity of juice obtained (approximately 2-3 quarts, depending on berry type and moisture content).
Rinse the pot thoroughly and return the juice to it.
Add 2 to 3 cups of granulated sugar (1-1 1/2 cups per quart of juice).
Bring the mixture back to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 10-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely to room temperature.
Add 2 to 3 cups of high-quality alcohol (vodka or neutral grain spirit recommended) (1 cup per quart of sweetened juice). Stir well to combine.
Carefully transfer the cordial to a clean, airtight container (glass is preferred). Allow it to sit for at least 2 weeks, allowing the flavors to meld.
Enjoy immediately after the two-week resting period, or let it age for 4-6 weeks for an even more complex and nuanced flavor. The longer it ages, the better it will taste!
For longer aging, ensure that the container is tightly sealed and stored in a cool, dark place.
