Ingredients
- 700 g ripe germa fruit (cleaned and pitted)
- 300 g sugar
- 900 g vodka
Instructions
- Prep the Fruit:
Wash the germa fruit thoroughly, remove the pits, and cut the flesh into small pieces. - Mash the Fruit:
Place the fruit pieces in a large bowl and mash them with your hands as much as you can to extract their natural juices. - Infusion:
Transfer the mashed fruit and all its juices into a large glass jar. Add the vodka and sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. - Waiting Period:
Seal the jar tightly and leave it in a cool, shaded place for 1 month. Give it an occasional gentle shake to help the flavors develop beautifully. - Straining:
After 1 month, strain the mixture through a fine muslin cloth or cheesecloth into a bowl, ensuring a smooth, clear liqueur with no pulp. - Bottling & Resting:
Pour the strained liqueur into sterilized glass bottles. Let it rest for another 2 weeks in a shaded spot to mellow and unify its flavors.
