No cherry brandy! What shall I use?
Asked on 29 Nov 2023 by Little Billy
Hi Lindsay
Hope you are well.
I like the sound of the Creole christmas cake and want to try it. However, I have found it impossible to locate cherry brandy to date, having tried all local off licences and supermarkets. I live in Ireland and it is not commonly used apparently!!
Any thoughts on possible alternatives or a specific brand of cherry brandy as that may help my search.
Many thanks Lindsay.
Kind regards
Anna
Hello Anna,
I’m good thanks and hope you are too.
Either increase the brandy you do have or Calvados.
Kind regards
Lindsey
Will go with the Calvados option, that is more achievable!!! Thank you so much for your speedy reply.
I look forward to making the cake now.
Happy Christmas to you and all the team.
Many thanks
Anna
Happy Christmas to you too!
