When substituting dried herbs for fresh, the most common conversion is 1 part dried herb for every 3 parts fresh. That would definitely drop the cost of a batch. I've never taste the commercial Pimento Liqueur and would be interested to see if this would be a close second (or maybe even better). It would definitely be cheaper than a trip to Jamaica, but not nearly as much fun!
