Licorice Cream Liqueur

The Homemade Licorice Cream Liqueur is easy to make. Only a few ingredients are needed to get an after-dinner drink with a pleasant taste on the palate. Milk, cream, alcohol for liqueurs, sugar, and the most important thing… licorice powder. This can be found in herbal shops and often at market stalls along with spices. Excellent as a digestif but care must be taken as licorice cream liqueur is not suitable for those with high blood pressure. Follow all the instructions and it will be a success!
