Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon Raspberry Liqueur Use 1:1 ratio substitute
  • 1 tablespoon Creme de Cassis Use 1:1 ratio substitute
  • 1 tablespoon Black Raspberry Syrup Alcohol-free substitute, use 1:1 ratio
  • 2 tablespoons Red Wine Used with raspberry jam for cooking substitute
  • 1 tablespoon Raspberry Jam Used with red wine for cooking substitute
  • 1 tablespoon Kirsch Use 1:1 ratio substitute
  • 1 tablespoon Blackberry Brandy Use 1:1 ratio substitute
  • 0.5 tablespoon Raspberry Vinegar Use half the amount, dilute to taste

Method
 

  1. For cocktails, use Raspberry Liqueur as a 1:1 substitute to keep a similar berry profile and alcohol content.
  2. Use Creme de Cassis as a 1:1 substitute in cooking for sweetness and color with black currant notes.
  3. In mocktails or desserts where you want no alcohol, substitute Black Raspberry Syrup 1:1 for Chambord.
  4. For cooking sauces or glazes, mix 2 tablespoons red wine with 1 tablespoon raspberry jam per 1 tablespoon Chambord.
  5. Kirsch can substitute Chambord 1:1 for drier, cherry notes in cocktails and baking.
  6. Blackberry Brandy works 1:1 to add darker berry flavors in cocktails and desserts.
  7. Use Raspberry Vinegar at half the amount and dilute for savory dishes; not suitable for sweet or alcoholic recipes.

Notes

Strain Black Raspberry Syrup before use to prevent clogging or uneven sweetness in your drink or dish.
