Medieval cool aid is what I have heard sekanjabin
called. It is a medieval drink that is still made in the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. It is usually made with mint but I wanted to try some with fruit as I have had it at events. Drinking vinegars are now available in stores but they are easy to make at home with a little time. Small prep times and long wait times are the way I make them. Last week, I started two different ones, cranberry and peach. I had some peaches that weren't getting eaten and I hate to waste food. I also had a large bag of frozen cranberries that I wanted to use up. The photos are of the cranberries.
The items you will need for the first part of this project are:
Vinegar, not distilled. I used cider vinegar but white or red wine vinegars are fine.
A sealable container. I used a mason jar. I trust the seal and the glass does not react with anything I put into it.
Fruit to fill the container, usually 1 to 2 cups
space in the fridge to put the container for several days.
Fill the jar with the fruit
Fill the jar with the vinegar and leave a head space at the top.
Seal the top and put in the fridge for several days.
I'll post part two later in the week.
