Sloe Gin Slush Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine water and sugar. Bring to a boil and let boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Stir in the orange juice concentrate, lemonade concentrate and gin. Pour into a plastic container and freeze overnight.
• To serve, scoop 1/2 cup slush into a glass and top with lemon-lime soda.

Steps:

• Place 2 ice cubes in a highball glass. Set aside in the freezer.
• Combine sloe gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice; cover and shake until chilled. Strain into the prepared highball glass. Stir in club soda. Garnish with a slice of lemon.

Steps:

• Rinse and pick over the sloes, then pat dry in a clean tea towel. Using a stainless steel fork or cocktail stick, prick the sloes and tip into a 2-litre glass jar, or divide between two smaller jars.
• Add the sugar and gin, then seal the jar. Shake well. Once a day for seven days, give the jar a good shake. Store the jar in a cool, dark place and leave for two to three months.
• Line a plastic sieve with a square of muslin set over a bowl and strain the sloe gin through it. Decant into clean, dry bottles, then seal and label. The sloe gin is now ready to drink but it'll improve and mature over time - so, if possible, make it one year to drink the next.

Steps:

• Stir all together and freeze.
• To serve, scoop into tall glasses 3/4 full and fill up with 7up, Sprite or Squirt.

Steps:

• In a 4 L container, mix all ingredients together.
• Freeze for 24 hours, stirring once half-way through.
• To serve, fill glass half full, and top with club soda, tonic water, sprite/7up, or gingerale.
• ENJOY!

Steps:

• Wash and dry the sloes.
• Either pop them in the freezer for a week or so, until the skins after cracked, or use a needle or sharp skewer to make holes in their skins.
• Put the sloes into a large glass jar or bottle.
• Add the sugar.
• Pour on the gin.
• Add the cloves and essence if using.
• Seal the container.
• Leave the container for at least two months. Shake it every two or three days at first, then every week.
• Strain the liquid into smaller bottles. The longer you wait before this step, the better the drink will taste.
• Be warned - this is strong stuff! (Hic!).

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine all ingredients and stir well; put the lid on.
• Freeze for a minimum of 24 hours.
• This makes a slushy drink; it won't freeze solid because of the gin-- serve 1/3 slush and 2/3 Wink (a grapefruit pop); use 7-up or Sprite if you can't find Wink.

Steps:

• Shake well with cracked ice all but club soda.
• Strain into highball/collins glass over 2 ice cubes.
• Fill with chilled club soda.
• Stir gently.
