Plum Schnapps Recipes

Nastoykas (Tinctures)

 
   Plum schnapps - based on sweet and fully ripe plums - is one of my top favourites. It has a rich and wonderful liqueur-like taste, fine fruity flavours, and a great after-taste. Serve with duck, chicken or other poultry, pork, veal, lamb, venison meat, red meat, pie, ice cream, dessert, fruit salad, cheese and cheesecake. Excellent as after-dinner drink.
