Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 box(es) golden raisins
1 bottle(s) gin (must be distilled from juniper berries such as beefeater or gilbeys london dry gin)

Steps:

  • 1. Place golden raisins in a canning jar and fill with gin up to 1" over the raisins. Cover loosely with a non-metallic cover that will allow evaporation. Stir every day until you have raisins coated with a thick syrup, about one to four weeks depending on surrounding temperature and humidity. Always keep a batch ahead in the pantry. It is VERY important to use a quality gin that states on the bottle it has been distilled with juniper berries or extract.
  • 2. This remedy has been used to help reduce inflammation and pain from arthritis, fibromyalgia, diabetic neuropathy, etc. The recommended dosage has always been 9 raisins/day or one spoonful. After you begin to take the soaked raisins, you then may have to wait about 2 weeks for the full effect. But after that, the spoonful must be taken habitually on a daily basis. If you do not feel a reduction in discomfort, try taking 1 spoonful in the morning and 1 at night.

I'm not sure if I like these or not. The alcohol flavor is a bit too strong for me.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my drunken raisins turned out really hard. I think I might have overcooked them.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, but these were actually really good. The alcohol flavor was subtle and the raisins were nice and plump.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for me, but I think that's just a personal preference. I would recommend using a different type of alcohol, maybe something with a little less sugar.

I had amazing results with this recipe! Soaking the raisins in alcohol not only gave them a unique flavor but also made them incredibly plump and juicy. I used them in a salad and they were a hit with my guests.
