Ingredients

• 4 C        Frozen raspberries
• 1 C       Granulated sugar
• 3 ¼ C    80-proof vodka

Directions

• Divide the raspberries equally between two quart-sized jars.
• Add 1/2 cup of sugar to each.
• Shake to coat the berries and all them to macerate for 30 minutes.  
• Pour half the vodka into each jar (about 1 1/2 cups per jar).
• Seal and shake well to dissolve the sugar. Check every 30 minutes and shake again until you’re sure the sugar is completely dissolved.
• Using a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth, strain the raspberries from the liqueur. To remove more sediment, empty and rinse the cheesecloth and strain two or three more times.
• Funnel the raspberry liqueur into two 16-ounce (or four 8-ounce) bottles. Seal and store with other liquors in a cool place out of direct sunlight.
