12284 Raspberries in Armagnac Makes about 2 cups Wed Jul 01 13:59:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 01 14:27:52 -0700 2009 French Licensed http://www.chow.com/recipes/12284 Wed, 01 Jul 2009 21:27:52 GMT These raspberries can be served within two weeks of being soaked in Armagnac and should be eaten within a month. Otherwise, leave them for four to six months, strain through a coffee filter (the raspberries are no longer edible), then add the liqueur to Champagne for an evening aperitif, a Kir royale, Southwest style. For each drink, put 1 ounce liquid in a glass; then fill with chilled dry Champagne.

  • Wipe each raspberry very gently with a damp paper towel, then drop one by one into a very clean bottle. Add the sugar, then enough Armagnac to cover.
  • Let stand in a cool dark place for 2 to 4 weeks. Shake gently from time to time to help the sugar dissolve. Serve chilled in small glass cups.
