Ingredients

  • 24 oz blackberries 4-6oz packages, washed
  • 750 ml red wine I used Pinot Noir
  • 1.5 cups sugar
  • 1 cup vodka

Instructions

  • Blend the berries just enough to break them down to liquid. Combine with the wine and let them sit for a couple of hours before proceeding.
  • Strain the mixture first using a strainer to remove the seeds and then twice more through double layers of butter musline to remove any solids.
  • Pour the wine and berry mixture into a saucepan and add the sugar. Heat to a gentle simmer until sugar has totally dissolved and then let simmer for 3-4 more minutes.
  • Remove from heat, let cool down for 10 minutes and then add the vodka. Pour into sterilized containers or bottles.

Notes

Will keep almost indefinitely if kept in cool, preferably dark location.
