Believe it or not, this is a liqueur made from fig tree leaves, fallen from my latest acquisition, a fig tree, during a storm last night. After washing them throughly, I have boiled them in a syrup of two cups of sugar and one cup of water. Afterwards, I poured a cup of wodka, boiled for another two minutes and strained the mixture. Voilà, a delicious beverage my mother has learned from her mother.
