  • 2 cups vodka (high proof is best)
Step 2 Optional

Traditionally no water is add it, that said you can make a simple syrup like all liqueurs. Simply boil a cup of water stir in the sugar keep on stirring till all the sugar is dissolved shut flame let cool add to liqueur slowly tasting all the while till its to taste!

Notes On Fig Liqueur Recipe

The fruits are naturally very sweet, so be very sparing with your syrup.

Though not necessary, we do recommend you refrigerate the liqueur.

Water, try to use bottled water, tap water can make your Fig Liqueur have a cloudy look.

Fresh Figs, can be substituted with dry figs, if fresh Figs are not available, however I have had better results using fresh figs. Finding that fresh figs add a more complex and deaper flavor to the Liqueur.

Utensils

I am listing the simplest utensils that you can use, the ones mom should have already have in the kitchen.
Utensils:
– A large glass jar (I used a 3 liter jar)
– large plastic bowl
– paring knife
– vegetable peeler  (or knife)
– measuring cups (liquid and dry)
– metal strainer
– cheesecloth

Notes on Utensils:

Avoid plastic as much as possible when working with strong alcohol. Glass is always preferable.

Carefully strain the liquid through several layers of cheesecloth. It helps to moisten the cheesecloth first so the liquid permeates more smoothly.

Once you get to the point of straining out the pulp and rind, gently wring the cheesecloth to extract all of the liquid and juice.

Congratulations On Your Fig Liqueur
