but with a strong taste of black currant. You can prepare a
similar (but stronger) beverage yourself, although it takes time.
(Normal Swedish "svartvinbärsbrännvin" has a deep dark violet
colour and is prepared by extraction of black currant berries.)
Ingredients:
· 1 l 96 % alcohol
· 1 kg black currants
Proceed as follows:
1. In a closed large glass jar place the 96 % alcohol at the
bottom.
2. Place 0.5-1 kilograms of black currants in a gauze bag
and suspend this bag over the alcohol. It is important that
the black currants are not in any way submerged in the
alcohol.
3. Leave the jar closed in a warm place for at least two
months. After that time most of the aroma will have
evaporated from the black currants and dissolved in the
alcohol, however the pigment still remain in the currants.
