Raspberry Cordial
1 quart fresh raspberries
2 cups sugar
1 cup water
1 quart brandy or bourbon
Wash berries and put into a 1 gallon glass jug or jar.
Boil sugar with water until sugar is dissolved. Cool until just warm. Add brandy or bourbon to sugar/water, then pour over berries in jar. Cover jar and let stand for at least 2 months.
Strain off berries through cheese cloth or fine sieve. Don't throw away the berries! They are great served over ice cream or pound cake topped with whipped cream!
