Time P10DT25m

Yield about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 cup allspice berries
2 1/2 cups navy-strength rum (see Cook's Note)
200 grams granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Heat a heavy skillet over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Toast the allspice berries until fragrant, about 1 minute, then roughly crush.
  • Combine the rum and crushed allspice berries in a quart-sized glass jar, seal the lid tightly and give it a good shake. Steep for 10 days.
  • Strain the allspice-infused rum through a fine-mesh sieve into a small saucepan and add the sugar. Heat over low, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature before storing in a glass jar or bottle.
