Raspberries
Vinegar
Sugar

Raspberry Shrub is a fine old hot weather drink, easy to put up from wild or cultivated berries. Although any desired amount may be used, I usually find 4 quarts at a time convenient. Place raspberries in large agateware kettle. Cover with vinegar, just enough so that the berries will not float. Allow the mixture to stand overnight.

In the morning squeeze mixture through a cheesecloth. For each cup of strained liquid, add 1 cup sugar; boil for 20 minutes. Bottle when cool. Store in cool place.

To serve, put into a glass as much of the raspberry shrub as you would use of concentrated grape juice; then fill the glass with ice cold water or cracked ice.
