Ingredients:

2cups fresh raspberries- preferably 1/2-red and 1/2-black

1/2 cup honey
Two-1/2inch pieces of vanilla bean

Preparation:
In a sauce pan. Add sugar,honey, crushed berries and vanilla bean.
Simmer for 5 min. Cool. Stir in the brandy.
Divide between the jars and fill with vodka. Seal with caps and lids.

I leave the vanilla in the bottle, it seems to deepen the flavor.
