Blueberry Liquor

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 1 bottle of vodka
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup water

Directions

1. In a medium saucepan, heat the blueberries, sugar, and water until the sugar is dissolved and the blueberries are soft, about 5 minutes.
2. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing on the solids to release as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
3. Pour the strained blueberry mixture into a large jar or bottle. Add the vodka and stir to combine.
4. Cover the jar or bottle and let it sit in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks. Shake the jar or bottle every few days.
5. After 2 weeks, strain the blueberry liquor through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean jar or bottle. Discard the solids.
6. Your blueberry liquor is now ready to enjoy!
