Was a time not long ago when nearly every man of the house in Poland prided himself in his home-made nalewka (alcoholic cordial). They can be made with most any fruit or even green walnuts. Anyone on PF make their own? Basically a jug of any washed, dried, pitted fruit (sometiems a few stones are included for added flavour!) is simpyl drenched with 50% grain neutral alcohol and 50% vodka, sealed and allowed to standa few weeks or several months (shaking occasionally), then filtered through cheese-cloth or cotton wool in a funnel into bottles. Then too it should be aged additioanlly in a coll, dark cellar.
Anyone (who can afford it) can serve guests Johnny Walker Black or Four Star Courvoisier, but isn't there's a special sense of staisfaction in being able to say it's home-made or it's the house speciality?
