Recipe Facts
Ingredients
-
1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
-
1/3 cup honey
-
1/2 cup water
-
1 tablespoon rosemary
-
3/4 cup blended Scotch
Directions
-
Break up the fennel seeds using a mortar and pestle or under a heavy skillet. Cook the honey, water, fennel, and rosemary over medium heat stirring frequently, until it is integrated into a syrup, about 5 minutes. Let cool, with the fennel and rosemary still in the pot. Scrape off any white foam.
-
Once the syrup has cooled, pour liquid (with the fennel and rosemary still in it) into a sealable glass jar. Add Scotch, seal, and shake. Steep for 3 days at room temperature. Strain. Liqueur can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
