Tincture made from pine nut shells
Description
This tincture can easily be prepared at home. You can substitute vodka with moonshine, and orange peel with lemon peel. You can reduce the infusion time to your taste, but I don't recommend making it longer, as the flavor will become too strong. If you prefer it sweeter, increase the amount of sugar by 1 tablespoon, no more.
