Ingredients

    • 1 cup lightly packed fresh herbs
    • 1 ½ cups vinegar (wine, apple cider, or rice wine vinegar — avoid plain white vinegar, it’s too harsh)

    • 1 ½ cups balsamic vinegar
    • ½ cup sliced fresh strawberries
    • 6 basil leaves, lightly bruised
    • ¼ tsp black peppercorns

    Directions

      1. Lightly bruise (or tear) washed and dried herbs to release their oils, then submerge them in the vinegar in a sterilized jar or bottle. Cover with waxed paper or parchment and screw on the cap. Label the jars and let steep in a cool, dark spot for 1–2 weeks. Strain, rebottle, and refrigerate. All winter, you can drizzle over the flavour of summer in liquid form.
