About

Sloe Gin is a red liqueur made with gin and sloe berries, the fruit of the blackthorn bush. The traditional process of making Sloe Gin involves steeping the sloe berries in gin, along with sugar to extract the juices, and allowing the mixture to ferment over several months. The result is a sweet, tart, and fruity liqueur with a deep ruby color. Sloe Gin can be enjoyed on its own, over ice, or mixed into cocktails for added flavor. It's a popular ingredient in winter drinks because of its warming properties and is often associated with festive occasions.
