Wash the berries and to every gallon put 3 qts. of water. Steam through a bag and sieve. To every gallon of the mixture put 2½ lbs. of white sugar. Let it stand 48 hours in a large tub and skim off what rises, stirring once a day. Put into a cask not quite full and close, then bung and seal. Age improves it. Two buckets of blackberries will make 5 gallons.
