Cooking method
Before you start, you need to prepare a mixture of alcohol and water, from experience I will say that an excellent breading of grain moonshine, especially barley. Spices such as pepper, cardamom, cinnamon need to be crushed in a mortar, but not in dust, the main thing is that the spices give their flavor. We pour all the spices into a jar, pour alcohol, mix well and send it to infuse. The time of infusion depends on your patience, I recommend from 7-10 days.
When the fragrant infusion for becherovka is ready, we filter through several layers of gauze. We make syrup from sugar and water, the amount of sugar can be increased, it all depends on how sweet you want to get the becherovka. I like to drink it from a flask, I am satisfied with the level of sweetness slightly below average. Pour the syrup into the fragrant infusion, mix. Now the home beherovka should rest for at least 2-3 days, I recommend waiting for a week, during this time precipitation will fall out. After a rest, the becherovka is drained from the sediment or filtered through a cotton filter.
Beherovka at home is ready! After the first preparation, you will already decide for yourself which spices to add more, which to reduce, what to add new. The taste of this herbal liqueur is balanced, each spice is revealed separately and at the same moment they complement each other, it's good to have a glass before lunch or in nature.
