how to make raspberry vinegar

It’s raspberry season, which happens to make me very happy because raspberries are just so tasty!  In honour of this seasonal fruit, I have a few posts lined up that feature ways to use raspberries to help you save some money on your grocery bill.  After all, DIYing recipes and buying/picking large quantities of seasonal fruit is a smart way to get the most bang for your buck since prices are more reasonable than when they’re out of season.

First up, I’m going to show you How to make raspberry vinegar!

It really can’t be any simpler to make than this. All you do is combine two ingredients, wait a couple of weeks, and you’ll have this beautiful raspberry vinegar to use in salad dressings and other recipes!

Since the end product is a beautiful red colour, homemade raspberry vinegar is great to give as gifts.  It even seems gourmet, so any foodie on your gift list would love to receive this, I’m sure!
