Ingredients
- Rhubarb
- 2 cups, chopped
- Fresh ginger
- 1 cup, sliced
- Granulated sugar
- 1 cup
- Gin
- 4 cups
Instructions
- In a large sterilized jar, combine the chopped rhubarb, sliced ginger, and granulated sugar. Stir gently to mix the ingredients evenly.
- Pour the gin over the rhubarb and ginger mixture, ensuring that all the ingredients are fully submerged in the liquid.
- Seal the jar tightly and give it a good shake to help dissolve the sugar and mix the flavors.
- Store the jar in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks. Shake the jar gently every few days to encourage the infusion process.
- After 2 weeks, strain the gin through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the rhubarb and ginger solids, pressing gently to extract all the flavors.
- Transfer the infused gin into a clean bottle or jar for storage. For best results, let it sit for an additional week to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve the rhubarb and ginger gin over ice, garnished with a slice of fresh rhubarb or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance.
