As per your request - my Aunt's raspberry "brandy" recipe. Now, this calls
for fresh raspberries, but I don't know why frozen (without sugar)
raspberries couldn't be used with equal success. After all, these berries
"slosh" around for six whole months and believe me, after six months of
hanging out in a vat of scotch, they look pretty ~ shall we say - limp,
even thought they started out nice and perky!! Mix all ingredients together
~ this can be doubled, tripled, etc., to your heart's content. Stir daily
until all the sugar is dissolved, then let stand for 6 (yes, SIX) months!
After six months, pour through filter paper (i.e., Mellita) and add 2 Tbsp
pure glycerine to every quart of liquor you have. This packs a rather hefty
"kick" but is quite nice sipped after dinner.
It's also very pretty. Hope you enjoy it.
