Quick Berry Liqueurs: An Adventure In Cooking From Fäviken
- 1 quart perfect berries, frozen
- 1 quart vodka (or to cover)
- superfine (caster) sugar to taste
- Freeze the berries. If it's convenient, use a container to which you can add the vodka.
- Remove the berries from the freezer, pour in enough vodka to cover, and allow to defrost, about an hour.
- Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve. Do not force the liquid through the strainer, or the liqueur will be cloudy
- Sweeten to taste. (For the lingonberry liqueur, I added about 3/4 cup sugar, and it still wasn't very sweet. I didn't add any sugar at all to the raspberry.)
- Store in a bottle in the freezer.
- Note: I was a little bit surprised that my raspberry liqueur iced up in the freezer. And at first, the lingonberry tasted a little medicinal. But after a lot of research (!), I found that adding just a bit of these liqueurs to a fresh glass of cold vodka was a pretty nice end to a meal.
