Cuisine Italian
- 600 g Sloes
- 600 ml Alcohol
- 600 ml Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
- 400 g Sugar
Wash your sloes, add them to a demi'john or large airtight jar with the alcohol. The fruit must macerate for 40-60 days, shaking the jar at least once a day.
Prepare a syrup by warming your wine and sugar over a low heat and leave to cool.
Lightly squeeze your berries and filter through a plastic funnel with a coffee filter inside. Add your sloe-infused alcohol to your wine syrup and mix well. Bottle and leave to rest for at least one month, before gifting as Christmas presents.
