What to snack on tinctures, liqueurs - hot, cold appetizers, desserts.

In total, there are a lot of varieties of tinctures and it is recommended to choose a snack for each of them separately. When consuming, especially strong types, you should always think about how to snack on tinctures. Due to the fact that all types of tinctures have their own, special taste, we will choose something different for each of them.

• The list begins with the most common tinctures - semi-sweet and bitter based on berries. They are usually consumed before meat feasts, most often as an aperitif (an aperitif is served before a feast and is designed to improve digestion and stimulate appetite). Accordingly, hot meat dishes are best combined with these types of drinks. These can be kebabs from any type of meat, chops, fried meat. Cooled meat and cold meat snacks, on the contrary, are better suited for tart herbal tinctures.
• If the tincture has a fresh taste, but a little bitter, as it is infused with ginger, lemon or nuts, then fatty poultry or game perfectly complements the taste of alcohol. It is preferable to bake, stew or fry meat - then the appetizer will not only hide the shortcomings of drinks, but also help decorate their taste.


• Fish dishes always go well with spices, so liqueurs with such a taste feature are pleasant to snack on fish.
• At the sight of sugary drinks, the question rarely arises what to snack on this type of tinctures. Most often, they are served along with dessert at the end of the evening, after the main courses. Tinctures on melon, bird cherry, raspberry or strawberry go well with fruits, sweet pastries, cakes or sweet pies. However, sweet tinctures should not be very strong, otherwise the whole digestif will be spoiled by excessive intoxication of the guests.
• Liqueurs can even be drunk with tea or coffee. Sweet and weak fruit and berry drinks perfectly complement the taste of coffee or unsweetened tea. At the same time, it is allowed both to pour the tincture directly into the cup and serve separately, giving guests the opportunity to feel the taste of all drinks separately.

In general, the appropriateness of a particular snack depends more on the taste preferences of a particular person than on the type of drink. When selecting appetizers, it is advisable to be guided by the principle "The most bitter and strongest in the beginning". Bitter tinctures are combined with hot food, while herbal tinctures are combined with cold food. Sweet ones are with hot drinks or desserts. It is also advisable not to overeat and not to get carried away with fatty foods, then there will be less harm to the body.
