Plumblebee

Playing with slivovitz again. It’s pretty distinctive and I want to be able to taste it, so there aren’t lot of intense ingredients in this one. A little amaretto and honey help bring out the stone fruit taste of the plum. I used lemon blossom honey because it was in the cupboard though anything light and mild would probably work. Slivovitz can be pretty rich so you may want to adjust the sweet-tart balance according to the dryness of your base spirit.
