Spotykach – a dessert drink, whose preparation includes the joint boiling of a fruit and berry base, strong alcohol and sugar syrup.
It is worth noting that Spotykach loves experimenters. The recipes that Vzboltay picked up are just a “beacon” that you should be guided by when creating a new prescription formula.
