According to this recipe, you can easily make it from absolutely any berries at home. I have also tried to make it from raspberries and blackcurrants, but I usually use cherries, since I really like this berry in baking, desserts, and especially in cakes. Today I made liqueur from "shpanka" cherries.
To make the liqueur, we will need cherries, vodka, water, sugar, citric acid and cherry twigs. Cherry twigs are a must, even if you are making the liqueur with another berry.
