Ingredients

  • 2 cups blueberries, raspberries, and quartered strawberries (stems removed) washed and patted dry
  • 2 ½ to 3 cups vodka

Instructions

  • Add fruit to a clean 1-quart canning jar. Fill jar with vodka until the fruit is completely covered. 
  • Seal the jar tightly and allow to infuse for 3-5 days on the counter, out of direct sunlight. 
  • When ready, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the infused vodka, discarding fruit and seeds. 
  • Using a funnel, fill a sealable and sanitized glass jar or bottle with the infused vodka. The smaller the container, the better, so there is minimal air during storage. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

With just a few extra ingredients like simple syrup, lime juice or lemon juice, or soda water, you can make vodka cocktails like this Berry Ginger Cocktail in no time!
Don't have a fine mesh strainer? A slotted spoon, coffee filter, or cheese cloth can all get the job done.
