Ingredients

1 cup strawberries, roughly chopped

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

1 cup apple cider vinegar

1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper

1/2 cup sugar (optional- I do not add sugar anymore, but if you are looking for the sweet-tart combination, you can add a sweetener)

Directions

1. Place everything in a glass jar. Cover, shake, and refrigerate for 7-10 days (the liquid will be red, and the strawberries will look faded). Shake it once a day to make sure everything is mixed well.

Note: If you are using sugar- Heat the apple cider vinegar and sugar in a small pot on the stove on low. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Then mix with the rest of the ingredients.

2. Strain the shrub into a new glass jar by passing the mix through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer.

3. Cover and store in the fridge until ready to use.
