Guest guest Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 REMEDIES: Blackberry Vinegar (RECIPES, FORAGING) Blackberry Vinegar is a wholesome drink that is easily made and can with advantage have its place in the store cupboard for use in winter, being a fine cordial for a feverish cold. Gather the berries on a fine day, stalk them, put into an earthenware vessel and cover with malt vinegar. Let them stand three days to draw out the juice. Strain through a sieve, drain thoroughly, leaving them to drip through all day. Measure the juice and allow a pound of raw sugar to each pint. Put into a preserving pan, boil gently for 5 minutes, removing scum as it rises, set aside to cool, and when cold, bottle and cork well. A teaspoonful of this, mixed with water will often quench thirst when other beverages fail and makes a delicious drink in fever. The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.~ Albert Einstein ~ -- Version: 7.1.375 / Virus Database: 267.14.23/242 - Release 1/26/2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
