| Rosehips in gin - the start of the journey |
In fairness, I'm not really sure if it tastes of rosehips any more. I'm not even sure if it's related to gin any more because *something* went on in between time that turned it into golden, syruppy rocket-fuel. But it's good, and that's what counts!
Given that it was very experimental, I just winged the recipe and can't quite remember what quantities I used (which is part of the purpose of this blog!). Anyhow, it was something along the lines of this:

Rosehip Moonshine
- 1.5l gin (cheapie stuff)- 750g rosehips (topped, tailed and quickly washed)
- 500g sugar... or maybe 750g.
All in a demijohn, stopper and keep in a cool, dark place until you like the look of it. Yes, it's that scientific. Once you're happy, filter through the trusty tights and then again through a coffee filter. This last bit will take some time, but it's worth it.
