Viburnum liqueur
Description
The recipe won't take much time. We don't often make liqueurs, but when we have a rich berry harvest, we use part of it for jams and compotes, and the rest for making homemade drinks like this one. This recipe for viburnum liqueur is very simple, and the berries are perfectly suited for it, as they have a slightly bitter and sour taste. You can add a bit of sugar to the liqueur, although I personally don't add any—it tastes delicious even without it. And when you have a celebration, just bring out a bottle of this liqueur and treat your friends to an excellent homemade drink, because now you know how.
