paul99 Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Whilst clearing out the freezer last weekend we discovered a few pounds of raspberries frozen earlier in the year but forgotten about. For a long time now I've wanted to make a raspberry based liquer and so started searching for recipies. Initially I was set on Raspberry Vodka but came across all sorts of different spirits being used and each time the creator suggests his choice of spirit to be the best. If I had a larger supply of raspberries I'd make a few different ones but until next year I'll have enough to make one decent batch - so which should I go for Gin, Vodka, Brandy, Whiskey or something else...?

Fatcatsplat Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Vodka every time. Or.......pop to the shops, get quarter bottles each of vodka, gin and brandy and you can then contrast and compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul99 Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Vodka every time. Or.......pop to the shops, get quarter bottles each of vodka, gin and brandy and you can then contrast and compare. That, I think is probably the best way forward. Though looking at the poll results and suggestions so far it looks like vodka is popular. Thank you all for the input Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabbit_stu Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 Although I voted for the vodka... I think the whiskey would be interesting do small batch of them all as suggested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
