How to Make Raspberry Liqueur

  1. Rinse 2 cups of fresh raspberries and gently mash them with a fork or cut into small pieces.
  2. Place the raspberries in a clean, airtight 1-gallon glass jar. Add 1 liter (approximately 33.8 oz) of high-quality vodka.
  3. Securely cap the jar and store it in a cool, dark place. Gently stir the mixture once a week for 2-4 weeks.
  4. After 2-4 weeks, line a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth over a large bowl. Carefully pour the raspberry mixture through the sieve to strain out the solids. Transfer the unsweetened liqueur to a clean, airtight glass bottle.
  5. Add 2 cups of granulated sugar to the liqueur. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved and cap the bottle tightly. Allow the liqueur to mellow in a cool, dark place for at least 3 months (longer is better!).
  6. After 3 months, carefully pour the liqueur into a new, clean bottle (consider a decorative bottle for presentation).
  7. Taste the liqueur. If desired, add additional sugar to taste, dissolving fully before recapping and storing.
