How to make a distilled gin at home using a small copper still, with a recipe you can enjoy and adapt to your own preferences.
This gin recipe is distilled in one go and the method kept simple but without cutting corners so that you can go from your raw ingredients to a finished gin in about an hour and a half and have a really great flavourful gin all of your own.
I have a great recipe for Gin Chocolate Truffles which I will make a video about and post soon I hope.
I take you through the process, flavours and technique but also cover a little about licensing, legality and safety too at the end of the video.
Please enjoy sensibly and do further research to make sure you are working legally and safely.
Full recipe listed bellow.

Recipe For 1 Litre Gin -

1 Litre Neutral Alcohol at 45% (either a neutral grain alcohol or vodka - duty paid)
32g Juniper
18g Dried Lemongrass
14g Dried Meadowsweet
10g Dried Chamomile
9g Coriander seeds - lightly crushed
7g Dried Elderflower
6.5g Dried Woodruff
5g Lightly cracked black pepper
4g Dried Orange Peel
2g Dried Lemon Peel
1.5g Orris Root Powder
1g Sichuan Pepper

Please check your local laws and rules on distillation and make sure you can do this safely before attempting this.

Add the alcohol and botanicals into the still.
Gently heat on 50-60% power (be careful and you you may have to adapt for different stills / heaters).
Once the temperature in the still reaches 78C the alcohol should begin to distil.
Discard the first 10ml of distillation.
Then collect the next 600ml of distillation to use to make our gin (increase the tmereature of the still a little if necessary as the distillation progresses).
Dilute the the 600ml of collected distillation back down to 40-45% ABV.
You should end up with approximately 1 litre of finished gin.
You can drink the gin straight away but it will be best once it has been able to settle for 2-3 days ideally.
