Preface
As a joke noticed the peculiarity of the Ukrainian people by other
nationalities, some of us believe that we should drink less, others that we need
to drink more, but all agree on one thing: we must drink. Although it should
be noted that Ukrainians never drink for no reason We drink liquors (the
word for liquor is closer to us), because we value their taste, we drink
tinctures to be healthy. Moreover, the best tinctures and liquors are those
that we have prepared with our own hands at home. They are the most
wholesome and delicious, because the soul and generosity that are

usually harvested in the summer, and this type of alcohol acquires the most
useful properties 6 months after manufacture. Tincture is a combination of
vodka and herbs, spices, plants, where the amount of alcohol in a percentage
ratio reaches 75%. The most popular types of Ukrainian tinctures:
kalganovka, peppercorns, rosehip tincture, horseradish, varenukha, nut
tincture, mead. The pouring differs from tincture in that it is based on all
kinds of berries (with the addition of sugar, alcohol, usually contains 20%
alcohol). The most popular types of liquors in Ukraine: tartuha, cherry,
blackthorn, cream and blackcurrant spotkach. But let’s move on from theory
to practice and consider each type of beverage popular in Ukraine in more
detail to determine what we will stock this summer!

contents are best placed in a place where constant heat is maintained. Then you
