Answers: You need a Kilner jar (1 litre), you prick the sloes and half fill the jar with them add 100grams of castor sugar and fill with gin. Keep in a dark place and shake every few days to dissolve the sugar. Leave to infuse for about 3 months then strain and bottle. You can add almond essence if you wish but I have never found it necessary. Once bottled store in a dark place to preserve the beautiful colour then enjoy! owwww.........keep it away i'm a drunk...........lolz (some months sober) lucky you! :( I didn;t think you could find sloeberries lol. Pour the gin into a clean wide neck bottle,put cut sloes in with a teaspoon of sugar ,leave for 1 week.Then strain and re-bottle. You realize it's cheaper and easier to just go buy a bottle of Sloe Gin? You can buy it at almost any liquor store. put the sloes in a bottle first,then add the gin.
leave for 1 month for a full flavour!!
