Blackcurrant liqueur
Description
The recipe won't take much time. It's best to serve this drink at a New Year's table. By that time, the drink will have aged well and fully developed its flavor. But if you'd like to taste it earlier, it will be ready for sampling after a month. The drink is ready to serve.
