Method

  • step 1

    Pour 100ml out of the vodka bottle – you can keep this in the freezer for Christmas cocktails. Mix the rose water and caster sugar together until the sugar dissolves, then pour into the vodka bottle using a funnel.

  • step 2

    Wash any sugar off the Turkish delight, then put it in the bottle. Screw on the lid and leave to stand for up to a month, swirling occasionally until the Turkish delight dissolves. Serve with soda water and ice, or drizzle neat over vanilla ice cream for a boozy treat.

RECIPE TIPS
MAKE AHEAD

After a month, sieve out any remaining Turkish delight and keep for up to a year. To give as a gift, decant into smaller bottles, adding fresh chunks of Turkish delight.

Made this last year as gifts and wnt down a storm ! It does look a bit odd but that's homemade for you. Apparently it is really strong and I've had several hints to make it again this year. Highly recommended

This was very easy to make. I only tried a little, as I am not really a spirit drinker, and actually quite enjoyed it. It was simple to make, and by all accounts, didn't last very long when recipients opened it.

I'm not entirely sure what the point of adding the turkish delight was to be…
