As my intrepid husband Sam knows, there’s no business like sloe business.
Honigmilch is a kind of cure-all in parts of Switzerland, with benefits ranging from sleeping better and lowering blood pressure, to curing a cold or reducing anxiety.
I’m delighted to introduce my friend Friedrich Studer, who wrote this guest post on how to make a perfect Schwarze, boozy coffee from the Entlebuch.
Throw some ice cream into a kalti Ovo, blend, and you’ve got a malty milkshake. Or double up your malt intake by adding a dark beer to the mix with a malt on malt float.
After a hard day of breaking flax, there’s no better reward than this traditional caramel schnapps.
Of course the best kirsch should be drunk alone, however there are a wealth of drinks, like this Kirsch Sour, that could be made with less exclusive varieties (I know everyone who has ever made cheese fondue has a bottle in their liquor cabinet).
The market stalls in Bern are filled with late autumn fruit and the plums are holding court. If Zwetschgen is King, then his Queen is the tiny golden Mirabelle.
I've set my mirabelles to soak, using gin as my boozy base, and in a few weeks' time, there'll be boozy fruit for spooning over ice cream, as well as mirabelle infused gin, perfect for cocktails.
