Strawberry limes
Strawberry Limes is a fruity, refreshing liqueur made from sun-ripened strawberries, lemon juice, and vodka. The sweet strawberry base is finely puréed and harmoniously balanced by the tangy acidity of the lemons. Served ice-cold, it’s a special treat, and when bottled in small bottles, it also makes a wonderful gift.

Preparation
Step 1
Wash the strawberries, pat them dry, remove the stems, and cut them into rough pieces—they should weigh about 600 g.
Step 2
Bring the water to a boil in a pot and dissolve the sugar in it.
Step 3
Squeeze the lemons. Add the lemon juice and strawberries to the sugar water, and purée everything with a hand blender.
Step 4
Add the vodka and stir well (do not bring to a boil again).
Step 5
Pour into sterilized bottles while still warm.
Step 6
The Limes tastes best when served ice-cold with crushed ice or ice cubes.
