It's raspberry season again. Even tho we get raspberry all year round from Driscoll, I always get excited when I see them at the farmer's market and just can't get enough of it. I typically have a few jamming session each year - raspberry, and if we are lucky again, quince and apricots from our family friend's orchard in Petaluma and meyer lemon marmalade in the winter. But how much jam can we eat?
Rumtopf is an excellent way to preserve raspberries. Raspberry soaked in Bacardi. What's not to like! It's a very elegant adult way of eating your fruits and you will have a beautiful garnet rum to make your favorite cocktail, too. Ladle a few rumtopf-raspberry over some chocolate ice-cream!
