How to Make Spicy Blackberry Vinegar

  1. Break the 2 cinnamon sticks into smaller pieces.
  2. Combine 1 teaspoon whole cloves, 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, and 1/2 teaspoon allspice berries in the center of a 12-inch square of cheesecloth. Gather the cheesecloth and tie securely with kitchen twine to create a spice bag.
  3. In a large saucepan, combine 2 cups of apple cider vinegar (or white wine vinegar) and 1 cup of granulated sugar.
  4. Stir the vinegar and sugar mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  5. Add the spice bag to the saucepan.
  6. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  7. Add 2 cups of fresh blackberries to the saucepan. Simmer for another 10 minutes, or until the blackberries have softened and released their juices.
  8. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the blackberry mixture cool completely.
  9. Remove the spice bag from the saucepan and discard.
  10. Line a funnel with a double layer of cheesecloth, securing it with a rubber band.
  11. Carefully strain the flavored vinegar through the cheesecloth-lined funnel into sterilized bottles.
  12. Add a few fresh blackberries to each bottle for an attractive presentation.
  13. Seal the bottles tightly and label them with the date.
  14. Allow the vinegar to age for at least 2 weeks before use for optimal flavor development. Enjoy!
