Ingredients

  • half pint black cherries
  • quarter pound ginger sliced
  • half ounce cinnamon

Directions

1

Half pint black cherries, quarter pound ginger sliced, half ounce cinnamon, the same of cloves. Put these into a jug with proof spirit. Cork it, and let it stand till autumn. As black- berries, raspberries, or currants ripen add them, always adding sufficient spirit to cover the fruit. In autumn pour off the spirit and cover the fruit with pure water, and let it remain a week or more. Then strain off and mix with the spirit. Sweeten to taste. You may add apple parings or pineapples, but the black cherry is the most important fruit.
