How to incorporate alcohol into candy?

A wide variety of alcohol will perfectly enliven your Christmas cookies. Whether it’s griot, rum, brandy, various liqueurs, mead, or egg cognac, all this gives the candy a great aroma and flavor.

  • Add a few tablespoons of wine to the dough for a new dimension of flavors. White wine will give the candy a fresh and delicate taste, while red wine will give it a more prosperous and deeper aroma.
  • Prepare a delicious rum glaze for your cookies. Mix sugar, butter, and milk on the stove, then add a little rum. Then, cover the candy with this aromatic glaze, and you won’t regret it.
  • For a truly unusual experience, you can try creating cookies with champagne jelly inside. Just make the champagne jelly and let it harden. Then, form small balls of dough and incorporate this jelly into them. During baking, the jelly gently melts and creates a delicate, slightly alcoholic flavor that will refresh your every taste bud.
  • Feel free to experiment with fruit, too. Instead of the traditional filling in a jam, you can prepare a filling from fruit soaked in alcohol. Blueberries soaked in gin, cherries in vodka, or apricots in rum – the possibilities are endless. This fruit mixture will give the candy a fresh taste, beautiful texture, and aroma.
