Zubereitung von Framboise
- Gently pick through 4 cups of fresh raspberries, discarding any that are soft or damaged.
- Place the raspberries in a clean 4-quart glass jar.
- Add 1.75 liters of high-quality vodka to the jar. Securely seal the jar with a lid.
- Steep the mixture in a cool, dark place for approximately 2 months, stirring gently every 2-3 weeks.
- Line a large strainer with three layers of dampened cheesecloth and place it over a large bowl.
- Carefully strain the raspberry-vodka mixture through the cheesecloth.
- Gather the corners of the cheesecloth to form a bag. Twist the ends tightly and gently squeeze to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Discard the used raspberry pulp.
- Thoroughly wash the 4-quart glass jar and return the strained raspberry liqueur to it.
- Allow the liqueur to stand for about 2 hours.
- If sediment has settled at the bottom of the jar, carefully pour off the clear liquid into a clean container. Filter the remaining cloudy liquid through a coffee filter, changing the filter as needed to maintain a fast filtration rate.
- In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of granulated sugar and 1 cup of water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely (about 2 minutes).
- Remove from heat and allow the sugar syrup to cool to room temperature.
- Add approximately 1 ¾ cups of the cooled sugar syrup to the raspberry liqueur. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed, adding ¼ cup of syrup at a time until desired sweetness is reached.
- The amount of sugar syrup will depend on personal preference and the sweetness of your raspberries.
- Pour the finished liqueur into clean, dry bottles and cork them tightly.
- Store in a cool, dark place. Consume within one year for optimal flavor and color.
- (Optional) For an elegant touch, wax the tops of the bottles. Melt ¼ cup of paraffin wax in a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set in simmering water. Add a few pieces of colored crayon for custom coloring. Dip the corked bottles into the warm wax, allowing it to cool slightly between dips, until the cork is fully sealed.
