Sloe gin - make it yourself

We are already in the weekend mood and so today we have a typical English drink for you. Sloe is the English word for the fruits of the blackthorn and Sloe Gin is a gin-based liqueur.

For the homemade Sloe Gin you need the following ingredients:

500g ripe sloe berries
250g golden fine granulated sugar
1 litre of gin

Preparation:

Wash and dry the berries well. Prick the berries with a fork or toothpick, then pour the berries into large preserving jars.
Add the sugar and gin and seal the jars well. Shake well. Shake the jar(s) daily for a week. Store the jars in the cool and dark for 2 to 3 months.
Then filter the liquid with a Muslin cloth and pour it into clean, dry bottles. Seal well and label. The sloe gin can now be enjoyed, though - a little tip: like most things, sloe gin only gets better with time. So if possible, make this year and enjoy next year.

Cheers, as you would say in English!

Your SENLAC Team

Hang on!

Dear Senlac Team,

I often drink from the beautiful Senlac mug and think of you and the many trips you have organised for my students and me. Angelika, I hope you are well and that you can continue to motivate the wonderful team to keep going for years to come.

I've been out of school for eight years now, but I'm looking after career changers at a school in Berlin.

All the best for you, better times will come again.

Best wishes to all those I still know in Hastings,

Bernhard
