Time 10m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 cups chokecherry juice
1 cup sugar
1 cup Everclear alcohol, 190 proof neutral-grain spirits

Steps:

  • Heat chokecherry juice to warm (but not hot) temperature to help disolve sugar. There is no fermentation after the alcohol is added.
  • Add sugar to warmed juice and stir until dissolved.
  • Add Everclear.
  • Stir, bottle, and let rest for at least one month.
  • Serve cool.

Tips:

  • To make the best chokecherry liqueur, use ripe, fresh chokecherries. You can harvest wild chokecherries or purchase them from a farmer's market or specialty grocery store.
  • If you can't find fresh chokecherries, you can use frozen or dried chokecherries. However, the flavor of the liqueur will be less intense.
  • Before using chokecherries, remove the pits. You can do this by hand or with a cherry pitter.
  • To make the liqueur, you will need to combine the chokecherries with sugar, water, and vodka. The ratio of these ingredients will vary depending on the recipe you use.
  • The liqueur will need to age for several weeks or months before it is ready to drink. The aging process will help to mellow the flavor of the liqueur and make it smoother.
  • Once the liqueur is aged, you can enjoy it neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails.

Conclusion:

Chokecherry liqueur is a delicious and unique spirit that is easy to make at home. With a little patience, you can create a liqueur that will impress your friends and family.
