Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Herbal Mixture

In a large glass jar, combine dried chamomile flowers, dried orange peel, dried mint leaves, star anise, cinnamon stick, and cloves. Mix well.

2

Add Alcohol

Pour the high-proof alcohol over the herbal mixture in the jar. Ensure that all herbs are submerged. Seal the jar tightly and shake gently.

3

Infuse

Let the mixture infuse at room temperature for 2-4 weeks, shaking the jar gently every few days to mix. The longer it infuses, the more robust the flavors will be.

Finalizing the Amaro

4

Strain the Mixture

After the infusion period, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle, discarding the solids.

5

Prepare Simple Syrup

If not already prepared, make simple syrup by dissolving equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan over low heat. Allow it to cool.

6

Combine with Water and Syrup

Mix the strained herbal infusion with the water and simple syrup in a large bowl or pitcher. Adjust sweetness to taste, adding more syrup if desired.

7

Bottle the Amaro

Transfer the final mixture into bottles, seal tightly, and label. Let it rest for at least another week to allow flavors to meld.
