Does heating the creme de cassis make it nonalcoholic?

Question

Nancy · Answer

Or, use a non-alcoholic fruit juice or water to replace the liqueur.

HalfPint · Answer

That much heating will affect the flavor. Since the recipe calls for only 2TB, maybe you can omit or use a little bit of vinegar.  I think a little white balsamic would work here.

HalfPint · Answer

You can heat a liqueur to remove most of the alcohol, but never all if it.  There will always be ~0.5% alcohol left, no matter how long you heat it.
