Egg liqueur & bearcatch
Advocaat
For this delicious drink, first boil up real Vanilla from one or even 2 pods together with 200 ml cream, then stir in 250 g icing sugar. As soon as the mixture has cooled down, 200 ml clear alcohol is stirred in. This also ensures the shelf life of the drink. Nevertheless, advocaat is known to be a drink that should not be stored for too long.
Egg liqueur can alternatively be produced without alcohol, refined with orange and lemon flavour and Cinnamon . However, this Vairante should be drunk immediately (made from eggs among other things).
Bear Catch
Bear-catching is called liqueurs, where honey is mixed with alcohol and spices like Cinnamon, orange peel and cloves. Here the ingredients are mixed together until the honey has dissolved in the liquid, resulting in a thin liquid.
