Step 1:
Prepare the ingredients. You can prepare any amount of tinctures, based on how much jam you have left. The main thing is to observe the proportion: one to two, one part jam and two – vodka. Jam can be used for this purpose absolutely any. You can even take several different ones, well, of course, so that they are combined to taste. If your jam is liquid, not very sweet, then you can add sugar to the tincture.
Step 2:
If the jam is so candied, then there is definitely no additional sugar for it. The tincture will turn out very sweet. Unlike wine, when the tincture is left on vodka, the sweetness does not evaporate from it.
Step 3:
We put part of the jam in a larger jar and pour it with vodka in compliance with the proportion. We close the jar with a lid and put it in a dark, cool place. You can forget about the tincture for a whole month, unlike the process of making homemade wine.
Step 4:
After a month, we take out the jar with the tincture, filter it through gauze.
Step 5:
We make cotton swab tubes. We pass the tincture through a funnel into which it is necessary to insert a cotton swab so that all the sediment from the jam remains on the cotton wool and does not pass into the bottle. The tincture should be transparent, without sediment.
Step 6:
All the drink is ready to drink. The tincture on cherry jam turns out to be especially fragrant with a pleasant tart taste. If you want this alcoholic drink to turn out not to have the usual berry flavor, or the jam that is used to prepare the tincture is bland and not very fragrant, then you can add cinnamon and grated ginger to the number of ingredients, the taste of the tincture will sparkle with new interesting notes.
