Polish Red Pop - Compliments
of Len
Piasecki
Ingredients:
1 part fresh raspberries*
1 part sugar
1 part 80 or 100 proof Vodka
2 Aspirin (for the morning after)
*Note: frozen raspberries may be substituted
is fresh raspberries are out of season
Directions:
1. Clean out a large glass or plastic container.
2. Mix equal parts Vodka, sugar and
raspberries into that container (one fifth of Vodka equals about 4 pints of
raspberries).
3. Swirl contents of container until
sugar is completely dissolved into the solution.
4. Let ingredients ferment in
container for 6 months to 1 year. The longer the Red Pop ferments, the
smoother it will be.
5. When the Red Pop is done
fermenting, strain off all solids in the solution by siphoning out the
liquid. Contents can also be strained by putting a nylon over a jar and
pouring solution over it. This is very messy but well worth it.
