Really? I keep mine in the big jar for at least 3 months, before straining and bottling. Only just got my berries a couple of weeks ago, so they're still in the freezer!

These blackcurrants were picked in the summer of 2015 and the cassis was started shortly afterwards, so they were in the vodka for more than a year before straining and bottling :)

ETA: Sadly my harvest this year was very poor as something got through an unnoticed gap in the netting :(
