Krupnikas, a Lithuanian honey liquor, is a staple in our household - we put it in tea when we're sick, we take shots of it during parties, we sip on it after a big meal as a digestif. There was a bottle of it at every table at our wedding, as well as a few full barrels of it by the dance floor for refills. It's potent. It's delicious. It's a no-brainer that when my best friend (and honorary Lithuanian) asked if we could make some for her wedding next year, we jumped at the opportunity to brew a batch.
Our Saturday consisted of making (and tasting) Krupnikas, and our Sunday was spent recovering with a drive up the coast and into Topanga Canyon for lunch and margaritas.
It was a good weekend, and we look forward to toasting the happy couple with a finely aged shot of Krupnikas next year.
The bug is 13 months old today... I think we'll bake some cookies to celebrate. Have a happy week!
This is all really freakin amazing. <3
