I am a bit of a 'more is always better' kind of gal so will use half a glass of brandy and taste to check! Don't want to put so much in it erodes tooth enamel on contact :-)!! Been and bought some brandy this morning so will give it a go later this evening. Thanks again for all your much needed advice. Thanks for the advice Steve and Fiona.

However, the amount is a matter of taste and also it depends what amount you have made; I tend to do a double batch at a time. I would tend to put half a glass full in a double batch and even then it's not that strong - but enough for you to know that it's in there! Hi Amanda
