    List of Ingredients


    • 2 cups apple cider vinegar
    • 1/2 cup blueberries
    • 1 tablespoon sugar
    • slice of orange or lemon
    • sprig of mint
    • Blueberry-Basil Vinegar:

    • 1 1/4 cup (firmly packed) basil leaves
    • 2 cups white vinegar
    • 1 teaspoon sugar


    Instructions


    1. For Blueberry Vinegar: In a small stainless steel saucepan over medium heat, warm the vinegar until hot. Add remaining ingredients. Crush the berries with the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat to cool. Cover and steep in a cool place 2-3 days. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and strain liquid into a sterilized jar.

Combine the vinegar and sugar in a nonreactive saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour the hot vinegar over the berry mixture. Cover the measure or bowl and let stand in a cool place for 4 days or up to 2 weeks. Scald two 1-cup vinegar bottles. Strain the berry-vinegar mixture through a fine sieve or several layers of cheesecloth into a clean glass measure. Pour the vinegar into the clean bottles and tightly cork or cap.
