Artichoke elixir

Description

This is quite simply one of our favourite digestifs at the eatery: a delightfully medicinal artichoke elixir, made according to the time-honoured tradition of Berlin’s Jagla family of pharmacists. Following several weeks of aging, regional artichoke leaves meld with bitter herbs, roots, barks and flowers such as gentian, centaury, citronella root, cardamom, ginger rhizome, nutmeg, cinchona bark, bitter orange peel, juniper berries, lavender, cinnamon bark, citronella, valerian, angelica root, cloves, galangal rhizome and saffron. The cold macerated bitter herbs bring out the full flavour. Serve it in a shot glass!
