Alcohol does nice things with raspberries. One thing we like to do is
to make Raspberry Hooch. It was one of my MiL's recipes. She wasn't
really much of a cook but this recipe is so simple and the results so
good. A quart quart and a pound... a quart of raspberries, a quart of >alcohol (vodka or Alcool) and a pound od sugar.

Oh, thanks. You never know with Dave's spelling.
The way he capitalized it and its conjunction with vodka suggested
a quick google would be in order. It might not have turned up the
Quebec reference for you, though. Given my proximity to Canada and
the fact that I occasionally search for Canadian people, places, or
things, my odds were somewhat greater.

Here there is is a current case about a

His argument is that it's legal, thus
