Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup black currant juice I used the concentrated Ribena
  • 1 cup vodka or other spirit of choice

Instructions
 

  • Combine the sugar and juice in a large measuring cup. Stir continuously until all of the sugar has dissolved (about two minutes).
  • Once the sugar has dissolved, add the vodka and stir to combine.
  • Pour your finished liqueur into a glass bottle or jar and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

Make non-alcoholic crème de cassis

Simply omit the alcohol and you'll have all the flavor of crème de cassis without the alcohol. A sweet black currant syrup is essentially the same as a non-alcoholic crème de cassis.
