List of Ingredients




2 cups Fresh Blackberris, Crushed
1 cup Sugar, dissolved in 1/2 cup water
2 cups 80 proof Brandy


Recipe



Put the berries and their juice in a glass jar with one cup of brandy. shake well, seal tightly, and let steep for one week. Pour the mixture through a strainer lined with clean cloth (cheesecloth works well). Squeeze to remove all juice. Repeat without squeezing to remove haze. Add the last cup of brandy and Sugar syrup (water and sugar dissolved over light heat)

NOTE: This is delicious! they loved this one. i didn't get all of the bits strained out so it was a little chunky, but no one minded. for different flavors try adding a few cloves, a small amount of cinnamon or coriander.
