Equipment

A large jar (one liter) or use an array of smaller jars.
1 fine stray sieve
Bottles to give away as a gift (optional)

Ingredients

750 ml vodka 25 fl oz
500 g strawberries 17 oz / I tried both frozen and fresh and they both work well
3 tablespoon white sugar

Instructions

If using fresh strawberries wash, hull and quarter them. Add the strawberries into the jar and then pour the vodka on top.
Pour in the sugar in the jar and mix well with a spoon.
Close the jar and leave the strawberry vodka to infuse in a cool dark place. I kept mine in the kitchen cupboard. (Within a few hours the vodka will absorb the colour of the strawberries. After a week the strawberries will appear almost white.)
Leave to infuse for 7-10 days.
After this time, strain the strawberries through a fine mesh sieve or cheese cloth. Capture the vodka and fill into a bottle or gift bottles as desired.

Notes

Recipes with homemade strawberry vodka

Strawberry Vodka Lemonade

This is how I like to serve it on hot summer days. It is easy. I use the measurement ratio 1:3. So if you have a 180 ml/ 6 fl oz glass then add 90 ml/ 9 fl oz vodka and 120 ml/ 4 fl oz lemonade.

If you like you can add some fresh or frozen strawberries to the drink. If you are using frozen strawberries you can omit the ice cubes.

Strawberry Vodka Punch

Preparing a strawberry vodka summer punch is a fun way of entertaining guests. One of my favourite recipes is strawberry vodka champagne punch.

Ingredients:

750ml / 25 fl oz of vodka
750 ml 25 fl ozof champagne or sparkling wine
2 litres/ 67 fl oz of lemonade.
500 g/ 17 oz of strawberries
A handful of mint leaves.

Strawberry Vodka Shots

You can serve them straight up as shots.
