Scenario
You want to make Cherry Brandy. You know that you need cherries, sugar and brandy and it should be 25% ABV when finished. But how much brandy should you add?
Steps
Enter the ABV of the spirit you are going to use, then enter your target ABV and the target volume (the size of the bottle you are making). Press calculate and the spirit needed is shown.
Example
Original spirit (Brandy) = 40%
Target Liqueur = 25% (Cherry Brandy)
Target Volume = 750ml (wine bottle)
Result = 469ml of brandy
Mix the brandy with the cherries and sugar, top up with water to 750ml for a wine bottle full of your own 25% ABV Cherry Brandy!
