Lichior de macese / Dog roses liquor

Toata lumea il asteapta pe Mos Craciun cu prajiturele, cafea, ceai. Eu m-am gandit ca Mosul poate ar vrea anul asta sa incerce un lichior cand poposeste pe la noi. 🙂
Dupa ce am consultat retetele pe care le aveam mi-am dat seama ca voiam ceva inedit. Asa ca am cumparat niste macese, zahar si alcool.

Ingrediente:
– 2 kg macese
– 2 kg zahar
– 3l alcool din cereale

Everyone is expecting Santa Claus with cookies, coffee, tea. I thought that Santa would like to try a liquor this year when he arrives in our place. 🙂

After a quick check of recipes I thought that I would like something unusual. So I bought some dog roses, sugar and alcohol.

Ingredients:

– 2 kg dog roses

– 2 kg sugar

– 3l alcohol (made of cereals)

Macesele se spala si se pun intr-o oala de inox. Se acopera cu apa si se fierb pana cand devin moi. Se strecoara si se pun intr-un bidon cu capac. Apoi se pune si zaharul si se agita bine. Timp de 4 zile vom repeta agitarea maceselor si a zaharului.
In a cincea zi se adauga alcoolul. Se lasa timp de doua saptamani la macerat dupa care se filtreaza si se pune in sticle. Se pastreaza la temperatura medie.

Dog roses will be washed and put in a stainless steel pot. We will add water just to cover them and we boil them until they become soft. We will strain them and we put them into a can with lid. After that we’ll add the sugar and we stir up. Four days we will repeat the operation of stirring up the dog roses and sugar.

In the fifth day we’ll add the alcohol. We will let the dog roses for two weeks with alcohol to macerate. After those two weeks we will filter the liquor, we put it in bottles and we keep them at medium temperature.
