Steps:
- Put all the ingredients in a large Kilner jar and shake well to dissolve the sugar. Leave in a cool place and shake 2-3 times a week for 3-4 weeks until the liquid is a rich pink colour.
- Set a large sieve over a large bowl and line the sieve with muslin. Strain the vodka though the sieve, then transfer to a jug and pour carefully into clean, dry bottles. Seal and label the bottles. The vodka is now ready to drink, or will keep in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year. Serve over ice or neat in chilled shot glasses, or make into a long drink topped with soda or fizz, adding half a strawberry just before serving.

Steps:
- Chop up the rhubarb stalks into 5cm (2') pieces, and slice the strawberries in half.
- Place everything into a large, sterilised jar, and give it a good stir.
- Cover and place in a dark place for 4 weeks. I place mine in a kitchen cupboard. Stir for the first 2 days, then every other day, or as often as you remember to!
- To drink, strain through a sieve or, if you like a crystal clear peachy pink vodka, strain though a double layer of muslin or cheese cloth into a sterilised bottle. The vodka will be fine for up to a year, but trust me, it'll get drunk way before then! (Image is of raspberry gin being strained - same principle).
