Cherry liqueur "33 leaves": how to make at home
Cherries are not only a filling for various pastries or dumplings, but also the basis for a delicious liqueur. It is this berry that is most often chosen for such a drink, because it is very juicy, with a pleasant sourness and natural sweetness. And for a bright, pleasant flavor, you can add not only the fruit but also the leaves.
The idea of making homemade cherry liqueur was published on the Instagram page of Ukrainian chef Lilia Tsvit(lilijatsvit).
