    Update - after 2 weeks I had nicely flavoured vodka. if you can hold out for 4 weeks you get a (rather potent) blackberry liqueur (don't drink near an open flame). Added bonus, the "sludge" that's left over is very nice on ice cream, although after eating it you probably wouldn't want to drive or operate heavy machinery for several hours...

    We've been picking elderberries on the Somerset levels all morning for our Xmas voddy!
    But I'm gonna send my girls into the neighbours garden for black berries when we get home tomorrow!

    Hi Jane great vid as usual ,but I wonder if the mash left after being strained could be used in pie with apples or as a topping for ice cream or similar ?

  • @nowzthetime
    @nowzthetime 6 месяцев назад

    You can do it without mashing the blackberries or even adding sugar

  • @lynneceegee8726
    @lynneceegee8726 5 лет назад +3

    Looks fab! However I loathe vodka and can always taste it regardless of how it is flavoured. Perhaps the sugar and masses of fruit would disguise it more. I usually make sloe, or blackberry gin or brandy, and yes, cheap supermarket quality has always been fine for us! Wondering if a small glass would knock me out of ketosis very much....😅

    The better quality comes from multiple distillings. High quality has less burn when it goes down and you have less of a hangover.

    Hello Jane. I was just looking for a Blackberry Liqueur recipe and found you. Its a lovely, easy to follow and entertaining video. Did you use castor sugar? Thank you for your work. I'm going to watch some of your other videos soon. Regards Nick

    • @hedgecomber
      @hedgecomber  3 года назад

      Hey Nick! You can use any sugar you like, caster sugar will take a little less time to dissolve but the results will be the same 👌 You’ve now got me thinking about trying it with a brown sugar 🤔

    I’ve had a bottle of blackberries in vodka sitting for about three years and I’m wondering if I strain it now Van I still drink it??? Or will I most likely get sick like km thinking?

      Oh boy! The alcohol will prevent any poisoning but I would imagine that the blackberries would have disintegrated into a mush? It might not be a pleasant drink but I don’t believe it will harm you (please don’t haunt me if I’m wrong 👻🤣)
      Honestly though, I think I’d start again with a fresh 2023 batch 😉
