Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Orange
- 2 medium Lime
- 1 small Pineapple
- 1 cup Strawberries
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 750 ml Vodka
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Wash all the fruits thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or residue.
Peel the oranges and limes, then cut them into thin slices. Remove any visible seeds.
Cut the pineapple into small chunks, discarding the tough core and skin.
Hull and slice the strawberries into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar has fully dissolved to create a simple syrup. Let it cool completely.
In a large, clean glass jar or container with an airtight lid, layer the prepared fruits evenly.
Pour the cooled simple syrup over the fruits, then add the vodka, ensuring all the ingredients are fully submerged.
Seal the jar tightly and gently shake it to mix the contents.
Store the jar in a cool, dark place for at least 7 days, shaking once every day to help release the flavors.
After 7 days, strain the liqueur through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean container, discarding the fruit solids.
Transfer the liqueur to sterilized glass bottles for storage. Allow it to rest for an additional 2-3 days to develop its flavor further before serving.
Serve the fruit punch liqueur chilled, over ice, or as a mixer in cocktails. Enjoy responsibly!
