Thanks for the info from everyone. Following advice from users here
and surprisingly information provided by my partners 13 year old we
discovered whole bushes of them (she said: I know where to get sloes,
disbelieving parents: how do you know they're sloes? 13 year old: Cos
a woman told me who was picking them and the area's called Sloe Lane -
point taken). After a couple of hours of pricking I now have 1ltr of
Sloe Gin and as an experiment, 1ltr of Sloe Jenever, Dutch Gin bought
on a recent trip to Amsterdam. I get the impression from research on
the net that any strong, clear alcoholic drink can be used. Anyway,
three months before the results.

Does anyone know if there is a group or list for recipes from home
produced fruit/veg or naturally occuring produce like sloes and
rosehips? You know, things you've been making forever with apples
from your tree?
