Gooseberry liqueur at home: can be made with alcohol and vodka

Gooseberries themselves are quite unusual berries and can only fully reveal their flavor after processing. That's why homemade liqueur is considered one of the best ways to prepare it. In the classic version, it is made with alcohol or vodka, and citrus fruits are added to make the drink fresh and light in taste.
