Moonshine tincture with walnuts

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 7 day 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make moonshine tincture with walnuts? Prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list. The first sample can be taken within a week from the start of preparation. To prepare such a drink, moonshine must be used with a strength of at least 50 degrees. Prepare the raw materials, that is, walnut shells and partitions. Take clean shells without dark spots.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the shells and partitions of walnuts thoroughly, changing the water several times. Place half of the raw materials on a baking sheet and dry in the oven at 180 degrees until they begin to crack, cool. Pour boiling water over the second half of the shells and leave for five minutes, drain the water and repeat the procedure a couple more times.

3. STEP 3

   

   Then place the entire walnut shell in a glass container and fill it with moonshine so that it completely covers the raw material. If desired, at this stage you can add honey to add sweetness to the drink or fragrant herbs (mint, thyme, chamomile) or spices (cinnamon), but you need to be careful with such additives so as not to overshadow the main aroma of the walnut.

4. STEP 4

   

   Close the container with homemade moonshine on the shell and partitions of the walnut with a nylon or rubber lid and put it in a dark, cool place for a week. During this time, the tincture should be shaken twice a day.

5. STEP 5

   

   After the specified time, strain the drink through gauze folded in several layers and pour into glass bottles. The tincture turns out to be a beautiful cognac color. Store it in a cool, dark place. The tincture can be stored for quite a long time.

6. STEP 6

   

   This drink can be served as a digestif or as the main drink to accompany a meal. It is perfect for a hearty, hot lunch or dinner with meat. Be careful when drinking alcohol!
