Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh strawberries
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 500 milliliters Vodka (unflavored)
- 200 milliliters Water
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cool water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Remove the stems and cut the strawberries into quarters.
Place the strawberries in a large, clean glass jar or container with a tight-fitting lid.
Pour the vodka over the strawberries, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark place for 7–10 days, gently shaking the jar every other day to distribute the flavors.
After the steeping period, combine the water and granulated sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has completely dissolved. Let the syrup cool to room temperature.
Strain the strawberry-infused vodka through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bowl, discarding the strawberry pieces.
Mix the cooled simple syrup with the strained strawberry vodka, stirring well to combine.
Transfer the finished liqueur into clean, sterilized bottles or jars, sealing them tightly.
Store the strawberry liqueur in the refrigerator and allow it to rest for an additional 2–3 days to meld the flavors further. Serve chilled or use in your favorite recipes!
