What it is
The sour-cherry jewel: vișinată — sour cherries macerated with sugar and alcohol into a ruby liqueur (with siblings cireșată, afinată from bilberries, zmeurată from raspberries) — the Romanian pantry's dessert drinks. Origins: fruit maceration in alcohol is the Carpathian farmhouse's way to bottle summer; vișinată is the most loved. Made from: sour cherries, sugar, alcohol (or țuică), time. How it's made: 1) Layer cherries and sugar in a jar; sun-ferment briefly. 2) Add alcohol. 3) Rest months; strain (the cherries become a boozy dessert too). Served: in tiny glasses after meals, to guests of honour. Flavor: cherry pie in a glass, tart-sweet. Strength: 20-30%. Culture: every Romanian grandmother's vișinată is, by family law, the best.
