My wife's recipe,
1 bottle of Aldi "Oliver Cromwell" gin approximately £9.65
12oz of granulated white sugar
1lb of "pricked"" sloes
3 cloves
1 stick of cinnamon
Put in 1litre airtight jar and shake once every day for month, then shake occasionally for another 2 months. Decant and filter. Enjoy!

PS put a bottle of cheap red wine over gin soaked sloes, leave for 1 week. Enjoy again!
