Tarkhun is a stunning drink, fragrant, with a specific taste, bright emerald color. Many love him. But sometimes it is very difficult to find the drink with the very taste that I remembered from childhood, people seem to be that the taste is not saturated enough, the color is pale, and in general, everything is not all right. So why not try to cook Tarkhun on your own, in your own kitchen? Then he will definitely be as you wish you exactly, and even if something does not work out - nothing terrible, next time everything will be sure!
Ingredients for the preparation of Tarkhun at home
- The first, and the most important component for the preparation of Tarkhun at home is, of course, Estragon. So otherwise they call the grass "Tarkhun". By the way, there may be problems with the search for Estragona, it simply may not be on sale in no known megamarkets, nor even in the markets. By the way, you can grow Estragon yourself, but for this you need to foresee what Tarhun wants at a certain moment, and put the grass in advance. Well, or wait until it grows from scratch. It will take it a lot - no one - from 50 to 100 g, this is a fairly impressive bundle. However, in this case, as with butter in the caress - the more - the better.
- Conventional water, clean, filtered - 500-700 ml.
- Lime - 1 thing (if the limes are not very large, and so usually happens, then you need to take 2). Limon can be taken. But Lyme is the same taste that gives a drink some piquancy and even extravagance.
- Sugar - here the cook is better oriented to your own taste addiction, but it is recommended to start with 8-10 tablespoons.
- Hazing - 2 liters.
