Steps:
- Wash the blackcurrants and remove any stems, stalks and leaves from the fruit. Discard any that are bruised or discoloured.
- Put the prepared blackcurrants into the sterilised 1-litre jar, along with the sugar and gin. Seal the lid, and shake until most of the sugar dissolves. Reserve the gin bottle for later.
- Keep in a cool dark place, and give the jar a shake every day if you can, or every couple of days. The gin will be ready after three weeks, but can be kept for up to three months with the blackcurrants in for a stronger flavour. Don't keep the currants in the gin for any longer than three months or the flavour will start to deteriorate.
- Decant a little into a glass, and taste. When you're happy with the flavour, strain through a fine mesh cloth or muslin, back into the original, or another, clean bottle. Discard the fruit. The flavour will keep developing over time, store in a cool dark place. Drink on its own, add a dash to champagne, or use in place of cassis for a less sweet profile.

Steps:
- Tip the blackberries and sugar into a 1.5-litre sterilised jar. Pour over the gin, seal the jar and swirl around to dissolve the sugar. Store in a cool, dark place and turn the jar once a day for the first week.
- After two-three weeks, strain the gin through a sieve. Pour the gin into bottles, and label. The gin will keep its colour for a few months and will be drinkable for up to a year. Use the infused blackberries in a cocktail like a bramble, or in a trifle.

- Add all of the ingredients into a large 1 litre lidded jar. The jar will need to have a good seal on it so that the alcohol doesn't evaporate.
- Leave to for at least three months, though six months is better still. The longer you leave it the smoother and more flavoursome it will be.
