Blackberry Grappa

While we were visiting our friends in Baselga di Pine I found a nice little book of flavored grappa recipes published by the local Pro Loco (Tourism Board). There are a few blackberries left on the bush, so it's time to try it out!

Grappa alle More (Blackberry Grappa)
1 handful over-ripe berries
zest of half a lemon
1 teaspoon (7 grams) of honey
1 cup (250 mL) of 80-proof grappa

Place the berries and lemon zest in a jar.

Add the honey.

Pour in the grappa, but do not shake or mix.

Place on a windowsill in the sun for 2 months, then filter and bottle.

Maybe I'll finish it for Halloween!
