    Currently got a mango festering in a jar of vodka. An orphan fruit found lurking in a Lidl 'best before yesterday' box. Nice to see I'm not the only one with daft ideas that actually work.

    Cassis is also a great addition to a raspberry sauce for Duck.

    Safely disposing of those leftover blackcurrants is a hard job, but someone has to do it!
    Might have to make some of this next year.

      It's a lovely treat on ice cream although you don't need many. I'm tempted to put some in chocolate 🍫

    Looks incredible! Definitely adding this to my to do list. Blackcurrants are going to be one of the first things I plant when I move. I think I'll need quite a few plants as I'm planning many things with them!
    You could do a sparkling wine recipe video so drinks like this are even closer to home grown. Either from grapes or other fruits. So many flavour possibilities.
    That brandy bottle is gorgeous!

    Great video, thanks Hugh / Fiona. I've made other liqueurs in the past using this method, including creme de mure and creme de framboises but have yet to try cassis. It's certainly a really simple but effective method. My next project is to make some Pineau, a delicious sweet wine using eau de vie and grape juice which is a famous local tipple here in SW France. As you can imagine, grapes are not in short supply here so I'm trying to work with the plentiful local ingredients.
