I know I'm not the only one on here making sloe gin. How on earth do you remember to shake it every day, day 5 and I almost forgot it tonight. A quick luck on this forum reminded me to go and do it.
Doesn't matter, you don't need to do it every day. Once a week's enough. Though I suppose it depends how soon you want to drink it.
Some people keep it in the car, all the bends and potholes give it a good shake.
