Original Text
Carraway Brandy, a favorite German liqueur, is made in the same way, by infusing 1oz. of the seeds in a bottle of good brandy for two or three months, then strain; mix with a syrup made of ½lb. of loaf sugar, boiled to a syrup with a very little water. Both these liqueurs are looked on as excellent stomachics. Another way of making this liqueur is by mixing together well seventy drops of oil of carra-ways and from three-quarters to a quart of clear syrup; shake it well together, then filter and bottle.
