Egg liqueur
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. Delicious homemade alcoholic beverages are a great alternative to store-bought ones. Homemade egg liqueur differs from the commercial variety by having a smoother taste. This alcoholic drink is perfect for any celebration or gathering with friends. You can use strong vodka (about 40% alcohol) or a milder one. Serve chilled.

1. I wash the eggs, separate the yolks from the whites, use only the yolks, put them into a bowl, add powdered sugar and vanilla. I place a saucepan on the heat and set the bowl with yolks on top. I whisk over a double boiler for about ten minutes, until a fluffy and smooth mixture forms.
