Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 68 day

STEP 1
How to make plum tincture at home? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. It is better to prepare slivyanka during the plum ripening season, when the fruits are well ripe, sweet, and the seeds will be well separated from the pulp. You can use any variety of plums depending on availability and taste, but it is better to take sweeter plums for this drink.
STEP 2
Rinse the plums well under running water, cut into two halves and remove the pits. However, it is better not to use overripe fruits, otherwise their pulp will begin to spread in the liquid.
STEP 3
Cut the plums into small cubes. But it is also better not to mash the pulp too much, so that the pieces are intact and the drink does not become cloudy.
STEP 4
Place the chopped plums in a clean glass jar. Fill with vodka so that it covers the drain completely, even if there is a little extra liquid.
STEP 5
Close the jar with a plastic lid and store in a cool, dark place for one month. You can put it in the basement or dark closet.
STEP 6
After a month, take out a jar of tincture. Pour the liquid into a bottle and put it in the refrigerator. Cover the plums with sugar. Cover the jar with a lid and place it again in a dark, cool place for a week. During this time, syrup forms in the jar.
STEP 7
Drain it into another container. You will no longer need the plum for the tincture, but there is no need to rush to throw it away. It is perfect for preparing alcohol-based sauces for meat, or it can be used for making baked goods and desserts.
STEP 8
Combine the liquid drained the first time and the plum syrup the second time in one container. Stir and bottle. Place the tincture again in a dark, cool place for another month. Sediment forms at the bottom of the bottles. Strain the drink through cheesecloth folded in several layers. Pour into clean bottles again. A fragrant, strong drink with pleasant notes of plum is ready. Serve the plum to the table.
