Blackberry Vodka

Ingredients:
alcoholic beverage, distilled, vodka, 80 proof
blackberries, raw
sugars, granulated

Directions:
Pour the vodka into a large, sterilised Kilner jar or similar container.
Add the blackberries and the sugar, then seal tightly and give the jar a good shake.
Leave in a cook, dark place for 3 days to allow the flavours to infuse, shaking daily.
Strain the berries and vodka through a fine sieve lined with a muslin or a new, clean, damp, J cloth.
(it's important that the fine debris in the mixture is removed from the liquid, otherwise it will ferment and spoil the vodka.)
You may have to do this a few times to remove all traces of the fruit.
Pour the vodka into sterlised bottles or jam jars and seal them securely.
Keep chilled and consume within 8 weeks.
