Cherry and blackcurrant liqueur

Cherry and blackcurrant liqueur

The complex taste of the liqueur is its undoubted advantage. Cherry and currant leaves give it a mysterious spicy flavor. Cherry branches are also added to the liqueur, which creates that special shade that is characteristic of drinks stored in wooden barrels. Cherries and currants get along well, the berries create a delicious new mix. You will only have to wait three to four days for the liqueur to be ready. During this time, the taste acquires stable stability, and in the future it remains almost unchanged. The strength of the liqueur will not be prohibitive; it fully corresponds to the class of light berry drinks based on alcohol.
