The Bar-tender's Guide/Raspberry Shrub
Raspberry Shrub.
(To make one gallon.)
- Take 1 quart of vinegar.
- Take 3 quarts of ripe raspberries.
After standing a day, strain it, adding to each pint a pound of sugar, and skim it clear, while boiling about half an hour. Put a wine-glass of brandy to each pint of the shrub, when cool.
Two spoonfuls of this mixed with a tumbler of water, is an excellent drink in warm weather and in fevers.
