"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Personal Notes:
My Mom and Dad used to make this every Christmas and gave it away as presents back in the 70s and 80s. Save your mini bottles, as it is a good way to give as gifts! My Mom recommends serving it over ice as an after dinner aperitif. Enjoy!
