Sounds like a good opportunity to write a quick +summary. +<p>Once again last year the cherry trees blessed us with an amazing amount of fruits. It seems my downy currant +(<i>ribes spictatum</i>) got envious because it followed in the same steps. I usually make my <i>nalewka</i> (the +closest English translation is <i>tincture</i>) only from the cherries, but since they currant was so seemingly eager +I decided to try it out. +<p>The generic procedure is very simple: get some fruits, dip in up to 70-75% alcohol for 3-4 weeks, move the fruits +into different container and drop some sugar on them, wait another 2-3 weeks, get the alcohol from first stage and mix +with liquid released by fruits in second stage. You can twist this a bit, by adding additional sugar stage at the start. +It's usually shorter as it may lead to fermentation. You can also do sugar-alcohol-sugar. +<p>I chose to do alcohol-sugar for both, cherries and currant. I removed stone/seed from the cherries but added some +leaves into the alcohol stage. +<p>The final product was about 1.5 litres of <i>nalewka z czerwonej porzeczki</i> and 2.5 litres of <i>wiśniówka</i>. +They both are incredibly colourful and have a rather strong fruity taste. They are both about 60%. I like them. If you +fancy trying Polish tincture and you happen to plan a visit to Poland, send me an email.</p> +<a href="i_made_more_alcohol_in_2023-1.jpg"><img src="i_made_more_alcohol_in_2023-1s.jpg" alt="bottles"></a> +<p>This year I will likely take a break. Even if I wanted to make some, I'd likely not have enough material since the +spring came quite early, backed off for a bit with some cold damaging the plants and making bees lazy (and killing +some). This resulted in little of the flowers getting pollinated and right now there's only a handful of visible growing +fruits. +<p>Until next time! +</article> +<script src="https://stats.ignore.pl/track.js"></script> @@ -19,6 +19,8 @@ <section id="posts"> <h2>posts</h2> <ul> +<li> <a href="i_made_more_alcohol_in_2023.html">I Made More Alcohol in 2023</a><br> + <time>12 May 2024</time> <li> <a href="respect.html">Respect</a><br> <time>5 May 2024</time> <li> <a href="generate_your_daily_commits_chart_now.html">Generate Your Daily Commits Chart Now</a><br> |
