Step 1
Place berries or fruit in bowl. Cover with sugar and stir.
Step 2
Cover with plastic wrap and store in refrigerator until juice exudes from fruit and starts to combine with sugar to form syrup. This may take only 5 or 6 hours, or it may need a couple of days. A longer maceration won't harm anything, so feel free to leave it in fridge longer than it might need.
Step 3
Strain syrup from fruit. Press lightly on solids to express any remaining juice/syrup. Scrape remaining sugar into syrup.
Step 4
Add vinegar and whisk to combine.
Step 5
Pour through funnel into clean bottle. Cap and shake vigorously, and mark date on bottle. Store in refrigerator.
Step 6
Check periodically. Some sugar may remain undissolved for up to a few days. Shake to combine. After about a week, acids in juice and vinegar should dissolve sugar entirely.
