Wild Raspberry Liqueur
Fudge wrote:
This is the best fruit liqueur ever. Best with fresh wild raspberries but
cultivated berries will work as well
1 750 ml bottle Canadian Rye whisky
(American Bourbon would be second choice)
2 cups very ripe wild raspberries
1 cup dark wildflower honey. (the darker the better)
Mash berries and soak in whisky for about 2 weeks.
Strain and add cup of honey.
Shake to dissolve honey.
Age minimum of 1 hour before drinking. Really good with a silky sweet
raspberry taste. Serve in a cocktail glass with a single ice cube.

Sounds delightful, but why the "brown" whiskeys instead of vodka?
Just asking because some Scandinavian friends use vodka to
steep a variety of fruits and berries (individually, of course)
and they are quite nice.
