Why Make Raspberry Vinegar?
Raspberry vinegar is not just tasty; it’s versatile! Use it in salad dressings, marinades, desserts, sauces, or even mix it into cocktails for a fruity kick. You can also explore other berry options: if raspberries aren’t your thing, strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries work beautifully, too!
What You’ll Need:
- Red Raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- White Wine Vinegar
- Sugar
Raspberry Vinegar: Step by Step Directions
Store and Enjoy: Pour the strained vinegar into a clean jar or another airtight container. Seal it tightly and store it in the refrigerator. Your homemade raspberry vinegar will keep for up to 6 months.
Prep the Raspberries: Start by placing 3 cups of clean red raspberries in a large mason jar or bowl. If you’re using frozen raspberries, no worries! Just let them thaw before starting.
Mix the Vinegar: In a large saucepan, combine 2 cups of white wine vinegar and ½ cup of sugar. Bring this mixture to a boil and stir until the sugar completely dissolves. This is where the magic begins!
Combine and Cool: Pour the hot vinegar mixture over the raspberries. Cover the jar or bowl and let it sit at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, until it cools down.
Strain the Mixture: Now for the fun part! Place a cheesecloth inside a colander and set it over a bowl. Carefully pour the vinegar mixture through the cheesecloth, trapping those lovely raspberries. Give it a good squeeze to extract as much juice as possible.
