Mutant sloes? Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? I'm pretty sure this is Blackthorn with an unripe sloe or two, but what are the oversized yellowish things?

A thin branch crosses the picture from top-left to botton-right. A lime-green fruit in in the centre, and the branch has a number of narrow leaves, but the most noticeable feature in several larger fruit-like objects. These are yellowish and banana-shaped, with a diameter similar to the green fruit.

We don't really have a tradition for #sloe #gin in Denmark, but the past two years I've been experimenting a bit with making it myself. It's super easy and a delicious treat just in time for Christmas.

In October you pick the sloe berries, then you freeze them for a couple of days. Add them to a jar with some gin - don't use shit gin, but you don't have to spend a lot either.

When Christmas is around the corner, you filter the by-now dark red gin from the berries using a cloth. Then you mix with a simple syrup to taste and bottle.

In my case I had 1.2 L of sloe gin after filtering, and I boiled 2½ dl sugar with 2½ dl water.

The end result is a strong, aromatic, ruby red gin with some sweetness to it. Enjoy it as is - as a kind of strong liqueur - or mix in drinks in place of regular gin. Your drinks will be pretty-pink and fragrant :)

It’s a great time of year for walking along our lanes seeing the hedging shrubs emerge after winter. Hawthorn (leaves out), blackthorn/sloe (leaves yet to emerge) & holly, are all blossoming together this year. Brambles are yet to flower. We’ll be leaving the hawberries to the birds, but sloes with bramble berries make great jam. ‘Sloe’ is a little used #English word now, but I think goes back to Proto Indoeuropean ‘sleiə’ meaning dark-blue. #sloe #BloomScrolling #hedge #spring #hawthorn #holly

Just in time for Christmas, two bottles of home-made sloe gin. Still not sure what it's supposed to taste like, since it's not something we usually do in Denmark, but I will claim it a success if only because it's so darn pretty.
