How about sloe gin?
Sloe vodka is just as nice, if slightly different, and also matures more
quickly (at least when I make it). Unfortunately I suspect you have to
eat the sloes to get the 5 a day.
However, get some decent rough scrumpy, drop the "spent" sloes (left
after making your sloe gin/vodka) into it. Leave in a sealed jar for a
couple of days (shaking occasionally) and then drink.
This is called "slider" and it certainly does go down very easily. The
sloes by now are edible - just. And there is the apple content from
cider as well. That must count for something?
