Fruit Vinegar
One that I've been making for a couple of years it a Berry vinegar. I give this along with a bottle of good olive oil and it makes a great gift...so easy to make. I buy those neat corked bottles from William Sonoma and fill them one each, stick them in a gift bag, put a little "fun gift paper" in and under the tree they go.
Berry Vinegar
Put fruit into 6 cup GLASS jar. Sprinkle with sugar then pour on vinegar. Cover with lid and let stand for 2 weeks. Strain through double-thickness cheesecloth. Discard fruit. Pour vinegar through funnel into clean bottles and seal.

Peach Vinegar
Put the vinegar into a medium, nonreactive saucepan and warm over low heat just until it begins to give off vapor (do not bring to a boil). Stir in the peach cubes and cook for 1 minute. Pour the mixture into a sterilized 1-quart Mason jar and allow to cool to room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes. Place a sterilized seal on top of the jar, screw on the ring, and shake a few times to mix. Store the jar out of direct sunlight and away from heat for 5 days, shaking it periodically, while the mixture steeps (the vinegar will absorb most of the pigment from the fruit). Strain the contents through a fine sieve into a 4-cup glass measuring cup. Discard the fruit residue and rinse the sieve. Rinse the Mason jar and return the strained vinegar to the jar. Dampen a flat-bottom coffee filter and fit it into the sieve. Rinse the measuring cup, place the sieve on top, and pour in the vinegar a bit at a time, allowing it to drip into the measuring cup. Transfer the vinegar to flasks, bottles, or cruets. The vinegar should be ready to use immediately, with a shelf life of at least 1 year.
YIELD: 2 cups
