CHERRY BRANDY (another way) (Choose sound fresh Morella)

Choose sound, fresh Morella cherries, wipe them, and cut off the stalks to within half an inch, prick each cherry with a needle, half fill a wide-necked bottle with them, and to each bottle put a dozen scraped bitter almonds and a quarter of a pound of white sugar-candy crushed small. Fill with best French brandy, cork securely, and seal over the top. The brandy will be better if kept for a few months. Probable cost of cherries, 10d. to 1s. per pound.
