We prepare drinks from tarragon at home. We prepare tarragon drinks at home Cocktail: "Heart of tarragon"

A friend from Georgia taught me how to make homemade tarragon, but it is hardly worth considering it a traditional dish of Georgian cuisine - based on the method of preparation, it is, on the contrary, something absolutely modern. Apart from the main ingredient (tarragon is called tarragon in Georgian), homemade tarragon has little in common with the famous lemonade: it is prepared without syrup, it is not carbonated, and, in principle, it is not necessary to put a lemon there either. And homemade tarragon is green from nature, and not from green dye.

The essential advantage of this recipe is that the Tarragon green cocktail is prepared in about 5 minutes. Disadvantages - it needs appropriate kitchen utensils: a food processor or a large-capacity flask mixer (blender), and also ice.

Water at the beginning of the preparation of the cocktail should be from the refrigerator. It is better not to take carbonated or take in a very small amount, adding it to ordinary water at the very end.

About the tarragon itself (which is tarragon). It is different, like basil. For drinks, one is better suited for which the leaves are so thin and, as it were, dry. They are very narrow and sharp. I mean, there is also a variety with more fleshy leaves (usually it is lighter in color and much sharper in smell), and so, that one is categorically not suitable for making homemade tarragon - the taste will turn out too sharp.

Please note that in my ingredients the weight of the tarragon branch is indicated, not the leaves. The weight of a leaf without a branch is about half as much. But everything is about there. The intensity of the flavor can be adjusted at the end by adding more or less water. Sweetness, in fact, too. What kind of sugar you take, regular or brown - it doesn't matter at all. But with lemon - very, very carefully. Lemon should either be a pure minuscule, or it should not be at all.

We cut off the leaves from the tarragon branch. Only they will be used, in no case a branch.

Lemon can be used with zest or just juice. But just a little, don't overdo it. I have two thin washers.

In a flask mixer (blender) or food processor, place the tarragon leaves, lemon, sugar and ice cubes. Pour in enough water to completely cover the ice cubes.

Well, we shake the whole thing for a couple of minutes in a mixer until all the leaves are crushed into dust.

Now we start adding water. At least a liter of regular, well, and then it will be possible to have a drop of carbonated, if you really want to. But she's here, seriously, unnecessarily! You can get by with just one regular one. It is very likely that the flask of the mixer (blender) will not be enough for the right amount of water, then continue to dilute in some jug.

If there is a desire, then you can catch the dregs from the very top, it is usually very thick there.

They drink homemade tarragon immediately, while it is cold. If it stands for a long time, then you can throw ice cubes into it before use. But why should he suddenly stand for a long time, if it is so tasty, and make it so quickly?
