OR

• 2-3 cups raspberries or blackberries
• 1/4 cup fruit liqueur
• 1/3 cup sugar to taste

Preparation

Puree raspberries or blackberries in a food processor and pass them through a fine non-reactive strainer over a bowl. Use the back of a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to press it through the sieve. Discard the seeds. Scrape the puree from underneath the mesh. Add sweetener and citrus or liqueur to taste. A rule of thumb for sweetening is about 2 Tablespoons sugar per cup of whole berries.
