Homemade recipe for vodka cherry tincture (not too sweet)

Cherry season, which means it's time to make blanks from it. And this is not only and, but also alcoholic beverages. The easiest to prepare is cherry tincture on vodka.

If you are a fan of sipping a glass of fragrant tincture, then the recipe will come in handy for you. Preparing cherry tincture is very simple. The main thing is to choose high-quality vodka so as not to get poisoned. This is an important point, do not neglect it. Cherries are suitable for any variety, but preferably large sweet ones, for example, "Vladimirovka".

Ingredients (per 1 liter jar):

• 1 bottle of vodka 0.7 l
• 2 handfuls of cherries
• 1 tbsp Sahara
• 1/2 tsp citric acid

Step by step preparation of cherry tincture on vodka

1. Wash the jar, dry it.

2. We fill it with cherries. Do not remove the pits from the cherries - this will give the tincture a light almond flavor. Those who do not like it, take out the bone. A liter jar should be 1/3 filled with cherries.

3. Sprinkle cherries on top with 1 tablespoon of sugar.

4. Add a pinch of citric acid here. We need it not for taste, but for the berry to give more color and aroma.

5. Fill the cherry with vodka. This includes a full 0.7 liter bottle. The product must be of high quality. If this is moonshine, then be sure to double the haul.

6. Roll up the lid. Shake well to dissolve the sugar. For 1 time this will not work, so for several days in a row you need to shake the jar.

7. We send to a dark place to infuse for 10 days.

Before serving, filter well and chill. It is most convenient to filter through a cotton pad inserted into the funnel.

Advice

If you wish, you can make a lighter drink for women. To do this, you will need to add sugar syrup to the finished tincture. Thus, the degree of the drink will decrease and it will become sweeter and more palatable.

Boil (read in the body of the recipe) and enter it into the already prepared infusion. The decrease in degree depends on the amount of syrup, do it to your liking. After the introduction of the syrup, leave the cherry tincture to “breathe” for at least 1 hour, then close the lid or cork.
