Ingredients

• Half a pound of damsons
• Quarter pound of sugar
• 1 Litre of gin

Method

1. Once you've collected the damsons, you need to cut their skins to let their juices, the flavours and the gin mix together.
2. Place in a jar before covering with the sugar and then the gin.
3. Shake the jar.
4. Shake the jar every now and again, and leave for a couple of months - or up to a year if you can wait that long!
