Elderberry Liqueur
The perfect elderberry liqueur recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 250 g Elderberries, weighed
- 1 piece Vanilla pod (pulp only)
- 2 piece Cinnamon sticks
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 200 g Brown cane sugar
- 100 ml Water
- 500 ml Vodka, 40%
- 200 g Rock sugar brown
- 100 ml Alcohol, 90%
- Rinse the elderberries briefly and dab well on crepe. Then pluck the berries and remove the unripe berries.
- Put all ingredients except the vodka in a saucepan and stir, let stand for about half an hour. Then bring to the boil and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Then pour the mixture through a sieve and mash the berries with the back of a ladle.
- Put everything back into a suitable twist-off glass and let the mixture cool down completely. Then add the vodka and shake well, put the lid on and let the berries steep for 8 weeks in a dark place. Add the candy sugar after 4 weeks. Then shake it every 3 days so that the rock candy dissolves well.
- Now filter the berries through a paper towel, mix in the spirit and fill the finished Lilkör into decorative bottles.
