Step 1
To prepare a fragrant homemade tincture, we will need the following ingredients: vodka, red currants, granulated sugar, as well as cherry and black currant leaves.
Step 2
We take 5 leaflets of black currants and cherries. My, dry and coarsely. Put in a glass dish (best of 0.8-1 l).
Step 3
Add 50 grams of sugar.
Step 4
We sort red currants and remove from the twigs. It turns out 200 grams of berries.
Step 5
Be sure to wash in cold water. If it seems to you that visually the berries are clean, do not flatter yourself: there will be a lot of dirt and garbage on them.
Step 6
We throw back on a sieve, dry, after which we knead. I do this with an ordinary fork, but you can also with my hand.
Step 7
We transfer the berry mass to the rest of the ingredients to the jar.
Step 8
Pour vodka (500 milliliters).
Step 9
We tightly close, shake. We put in a dry and dark place where we insist at room temperature for a week. If you do not forget, take out the bank a couple of times and shake the contents (this is not necessary).
Step 10
The result is a very fragrant alcoholic drink. It remains only to strain him.
Step 11
To do this, put a cut of gauze in a sieve, folded in 3-4 layers. We pour the contents of the can, while squeezing very well.
Step 12
It turns out about 600 milliliters of a very tasty berry tincture, which can easily be prepared at home. We pour it into a beautiful dish, tightly close it and store it in the refrigerator until serving. Tincture is unusually good in chilled form!
Step 13
Bright, saturated, with light sweet and thin aroma — a wonderful treat on the festive table. Prepare with pleasure, friends, and tasty tastings to you!
