The damson gin is by way of an experiment - but since it was there, with damsons in it, it seemed a waste not to try.
Treacle is always good, and if I added any sweetening, I'd be trying that, too - but the not-so-secret of the recipe is a paste of cooked dried apricots and dates, which is plenty sweet enough, given all the fruit.
