Tincture on birch buds

Description

I'd like to point out right away that you can use either fresh kidneys, if you managed to find them, or dried ones, for example. Birch sap is entirely optional, but it adds a special piquancy to the infusion. Moreover, the sap slightly dilutes the drink, making it less strong. The beverage is ready to serve.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Prepare a clean jar and place the kidneys into it.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Using a wooden pestle, mash them thoroughly. After a couple of minutes, add honey, continuing to mash.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Leave for half an hour.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Pour in vodka next (you can also use high-quality moonshine).

  5. 5

    Step 5

    Cover the jar with a lid and store it in a dark place for a couple of weeks. Keep in mind that it is best to store the tincture at room temperature, not in a basement.

  6. 6

    Step 6

    I also recommend gently shaking the jar daily.

  7. 7

    Step 7

    The finished tincture must necessarily be filtered to remove the buds.

  8. 8

    Step 8

    And now I suggest pouring birch sap into the strained drink.

  9. 9

    Step 9

    Now you can put the jar in the cellar (or another cool place) for 3-4 days. That's it, you can try what you've got!
