How to Make Angelica Liqueur

1. Gently crush 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds, 1 teaspoon of aniseed, 1 teaspoon of coriander seeds, and 5 whole cloves using a mortar and pestle. Chop 200g of fresh angelica stems into 2cm pieces.
2. Place the crushed seeds and chopped angelica stems into a large, sterilized preserving jar (at least 1-liter capacity).
3. Add 400g of granulated sugar to the jar.
4. Pour 1 liter of high-quality vodka over the sugar and angelica mixture. Stir gently to dissolve the sugar. Place the jar in a sunny window for two weeks, swirling the contents daily.
5. After two weeks, line a fine-mesh sieve or funnel with muslin cloth. Carefully strain the liqueur into a sterilized bottle.
6. Seal the bottle tightly and store it in a cool, dark place for at least 4 months (longer is better!), allowing the flavors to mature and meld.
7. Once matured, serve your Angelica Liqueur in small quantities. Garnish each glass with a small piece of candied angelica for an elegant touch.
