Blackcurrant Vodka Liqueur

A strong, aromatic drink that suits any gathering! This infusion turns out just right — and, best of all, quickly. It's a great option when you don't have months to wait. It has a gorgeous deep color, and the aroma is beyond words — you just have to enjoy it. You can make it with fresh or frozen berries; frozen ones lose a little aroma and flavor, but they let you make it any time of year. And it keeps for a long time — at least a year.

  • Pick over the berries, wash them, and pat them dry. Combine the water and sugar in a pot, set it over the heat, and bring it to a boil. Once it boils, add the berries and boil them for 3 minutes, stirring now and then. Take the pot off the heat, let it cool a little, and mash the currants well. Then let it cool to room temperature. Stir the vodka into the berry mixture, pour everything into a glass jar, and seal it. Set the jar in a dark place to infuse for three weeks, giving it a good shake every few days. After three weeks, strain the contents through several layers of cheesecloth, pour into bottles, and cork them. Store the finished liqueur somewhere cool. Cheers!
