Tincture is a wonderful drink for any holiday. The infusion of various berries, fruits, vegetables and even herbs based on alcohol, with the addition of sugar and other components, gives us the right to call this drink - tincture. And cooking it at home provides us with protection from chemistry and flavorings.
