There are many variations of this drink, but there is one classic recipe that has been used for generations and always delivers a good, consistent result. Cognac Recipe - You will need: 3 L of distillate or vodka with an alcohol content of 40-50%, the Hot Rod spice set for Latgalian-Style Cognac Infusion (the set is designed for 3 L of finished product), 3 tablespoons of sugar. Preparation: The sugar should be dissolved beforehand in a small amount of moonshine, or alternatively, a simple caramel syrup can be made. Place all the ingredients in a jar, pour in the moonshine and add the syrup, shake everything well and set aside in a dark place. The infusion time ranges from two weeks to two months. When infusing near a radiator, the time is reduced to one week - 10 days. Once the infusion has acquired a brown color and a rich aroma, it should be filtered, bottled, and aged for about six months in a dark place.
