The first thing you need to think of if you want to make liquor is what types of liquor you want to mixed to create a new one. If you want to create liquor with fruits, then you've got it. That's the easiest liquor to do. It is easy to make liquors of fruits and berries. I'll provide you with a very suiting recipe below. This recipe can be used for apricots, blackberries, blackcurrants, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, nectarines, peaches, plums and raspberries. There are also other ways for preparing fruit liquors, but this recipe can go for any or all list of liquor.
General fruit liqueur recipe:
1 lb. (450 g) berries or fruit
3 cups (710 ml) 80-proof vodka (or 1.5 cup pure grain alcohol + 1.5 cup water)
1 1/4 cup (300 ml) granulated sugar
Rinse the fruit or berries. Fruit must be cut into small pieces. Place berries or fruit in a container, add vodka to make it a mixed drinks vodka. Cap and store in a cool, dark place, stir once a week for 2 - 4 weeks. Strain through metal colander. Transfer the unsweetened liqueur to an ageing container (glass bottle or container with tight cap). To 3 cups (710) ml unsweetened liqueur add 1 1/4 cup (300 ml) granulated sugar. Let age for at least three months. Pour carefully the clear liqueur to a new bottle. Add more sugar if necessary.
The fruit used for liqueur making can be used as deserts: mix with sugar and use with ice-cream.
Now you had made your very own liquor shots recipes. The thing that will follow this is how you store it. Storage of liquors must be for 6 months to achieve the best taste it should have. After this time, you'll probably be enjoying the best liquor in town, or if not, you can try another mixed or just buy drinks made with vodka.
