Homemade Drinking Vinegars - Basil and Marionberry
I made two flavors at once - one berry and one basil, and I highly recommend it. Then you can have either flavor alone or a mix of both. This recipe is adapted from imbibe magazine.
Combine the berries or basil and vinegar in a lidded quart jar. Screw on the lid and shake. Let it sit for a week at room temperature, shaking at least once a day (or more if you feel like it).
After a week, strain out the fruit or basil with using a fine mesh strainer over a measuring pitcher. Pour vinegar back into jar and add honey or sugar; shake.
Refrigerate for another week, shaking once each day until the honey / sugar is fully dissolved.
Notes
To serve: Fill a glass with ice. Add 1 ounce drinking vinegar (or more to taste) and fill glass with sparkling water. Stir to combine and serve.
