I think this one os about a gallon or so. Just add fruits and berries as the season progresses and keep it topped off with rum and a bit of brown cane sugar. Tases great over vanilla ice cream around Christmas when its ready ..... So far I have straw berries wild raspberries and blackberries in there .... got to get some cherries next I do all my own stunts ... but never intentionally ... Let's go Brandon "Shall not comply" with morons who don't understand "shall not infringe."

That's why I would leave out the ice-cream and just sip-it... even healthier then.
