To make the syllabub, combine the sugar, lemon juice, brandy and sloe gin in a large bowl and whisk for about a minute to dissolve the sugar. |
Last year the business sold 12,000 bottles of sloe gin and 20,000 boxes of sloe liqueur chocolates. |
Sloe gin is flavored with sloe berries instead of juniper, the flavoring in regular gin. |
Wild fruit jellies, such as elderberry, rowanberry, sloe or crab apple, also make a great accompaniment. |
Felt very country-girl, particularly when we stumbled across some sloes and decided to pick them too to make sloe gin. |
Unfortunately a field of sunflowers were over, but we had the fruits of autumn, sloe, elderberry and powerfully scented crab apple. |
