Liquor

Recipe

Make Fast – Wait Long Liquor

2 cups sugar (raw sugar is best, white is also fine)
1 liter Vodka (the cheapest available)
2 cups nectar (can use herb extracts, coffee, etc.)

Heat the nectar and sugar until disolved, cool, add the vodka
and store in airtight bottles … and let it sit for a year.

I put a piece of firm fruit in the bottle also. Looks great
and adds to the flavor. I also use jackfruit, lychee, guava
and other tropical fruits growing in my (or neighbors’) yard.
A friend made some with anis seeds and it it golden ambrosia!

If these fruit are not available, get a can of fruit in syrup
and mix the syrup with the vodka, adding some of the fruit.
Jackfruit and lychee are very distinctive and delicious.

(For those who like a sweeter, more syrupy liquor, use a little
less vodka or more sugar. This recipe is a little on the tart
side, but after a year on the shelf, it gets as mellow as
as the best. The sweeter ones are a real treat on vanilla
Tofutti or other VLF ices.

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    5 cups chicken broth
    6 tablespoons butter
    2 cups green onion — without tops, sliced
    4 tablespoons flour

    Comment: This recipe is really easy to make and excellent served hot or
    cold. Make sure your blender can tolerate hot stuff or use one of those
    “one prongers” made by Braum or other manufacturers.

    Heat chicken broth; set aside and keep warm.
    Melt butter, add onions and saut? 5 minutes; stir in flour.
    Gradually add hot broth and bring to a boil. Add carrots, salt, and
    pepper; simmer 30 minutes.
    Puree in blender and stir in sour cream.
    Serve hot or cold; garnish with sour cream and chives.

    Note: I had a Japanese roommate that added rice and fukujinzuki
    (Japanese pickled veggies) with also was excellent in it.
