Strawberry Vodka

Made this while waiting for Sam to de-stalk his elderberries - a long boring job not helped by the fact that he has just dropped the lot on the floor.

One bottle cheap vodka
500g strawberries
200g sugar
Large air tight jar ( I use a kilner jar for this)

Sterilise jar in oven - 180c - for 10 minutes and pop in fruit, vodka and sugar. Seal, shake and leave for about 6 weeks gently shaking each day. After 6 weeks strain fruit mixture and bottle. This tastes lovely straight from the fridge.

I've made this with raspberries and it's really good, dosn't last too long though.
