A tincture of chokeberry
Aronia tincture is one of the most popular liqueurs we make. It has a great flavor and is delicate, fruity aroma. Aronia fruits cleanse the body of toxins and lower blood pressure. Aronie is harvested in late summer and fall. Due to the high vitamin content, minerals and trace elements, Aronia tincture should be in every home medicine cabinet.

Aronia tincture
Ingredients:
1,5kg of chokeberry fruit
0,5kg of sugar
1l spirits 60%
Execution:
As in the first recipe, wash and peel the fruit, then leave in the freezer for 48 hours. Pour the chokeberry into a large jar and pour the alcohol. We leave it in the dark, warm place on 4 Weeks.
After this time, pour the pour into a separate vessel, and sprinkle the fruit with sugar. We are waiting for approx 2 Weeks, until the sugar dissolves(shake the dish once a day).
