RASPBERRY

BRANDY

Raspberry

brandy

is

infused

nearly

after

the

same

manner

as

cherry

brandy,

and

drawn

off

with

about

the

same

addition

of

brandy

to

what

is

drawn

off

from

the

first,

second,

and

third

infusion,

and

dulcified

ac-

cordingly,

first

making

it

of

a

bright

deep

color,

omitting

cinnamon

and

cloves

in

the

first,

but

not

in

the

second

and

third

infu-

sion.

The

second

infusion

will

be

somewhat

paler

than

the

first,

and

must

be

lightened

in

color

by

adding

one

pint

cherry

brandy,

with

five

or

more

gallons

of

raspberry

brandy,

and

the

third

infusion

will

require

more

cherry

brandy

to

color

it.

It

may

be

flavored

with

the

juice of elderberry.
