Homemade Strawberry Liqueur

Homemade Strawberry Liqueur

An easy homemade liquer rich in taste and perfect to enjoy with some friends. Strawberries might be a summer fruit but since we are not eating these strawberries if you want to try and make this liqueur during the winter months don’t worry. Strawberries might be a bit more sour during the winter months but the sugar will give your drink a lovely sweet taste.

This strawberry liqueur can also be used for cocktails. Use a glass container to preserve for longer.
