I've never seen it there Jacqui but your post brings back memories. My neighbour's mum used to make it for people every year, late summer I think. She used to collect the sloe berries and we'd each buy a bottle of gin, she would put the berries in the bottle about half full, then top it up with the gin. You see her little perk here? We couldn't touch it till Xmas when it was gorgeous!
