Useful properties of anise tincture

Numerous healing properties of anise are partly transferred to alcoholic beverages prepared with its addition.

Such drinks have a beneficial effect on the body with toothaches and headaches, cardiovascular diseases, colds and insufficiently intense digestion (both as an aperitif and digestif).
