I'm making sloe gin.

Still going through the stuff we made last year. It lasts surprisingly well.

Do you strain out the sloes before leaving it for a year
I have read that if you leave them in for more than 6 months it can go bitter.

Yep took the sloes out after about 3 months.
Also remember to pierce each sloe - helps get the most flavour out of them.

a sloe bush next to a site I was looking at.

Good stuff

(I helped save b3ta! sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Mon 14 Nov 2011, 16:20, Reply)
I thought so
I was worried I might be too late as the other places I'd seen sloes had all been picked clean.

I'm not sure there are any near me
:-(

I may have to purchase the Gordon's one

It's damned good stuff
though I'm sure some purists would disagree.

I shall investigate some bushes whilst taking the dog out in the morning
