Crème de framboise is a sweet berry liqueur made from raspberries macerated in spirit.
Raspberry dominates — ripe and jammy — over a thick, sugar-forward sweetness with a faint tart edge on the finish.
Reached for when a drink needs fruit sweetness and colour at once, it works as a sweetening modifier poured in small measures, stirred or shaken into the build, or floated to layer.
Another berry liqueur of similar sweetness, such as a blackcurrant or blackberry crème.
Raspberries are steeped in a neutral spirit, then sweetened heavily to reach the high sugar content that defines a crème liqueur; the result is deep red and syrupy in body.
