Diversion: sage liqueur


Decided to put another bottle of the 2011 Muscat to good use - a double batch of the sage liqueur from Mielasch.  Amazing sage from our last market trip, clove, and lemon peel all steeped in wine and distilled alcohol for a few weeks, then strained and sweetened and stowed away to mellow a bit.  First taste might be OK at Xmas or the New Year.  Used vodka as the alcohol base.
