Method

Preparation of Tuaca

  1. 1

    Infuse the Base Ingredients

    In a saucepan, combine the Tuaca liqueur, sugar, vanilla bean (split lengthwise), cinnamon stick, nutmeg, orange zest, and cloves. Heat gently over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  2. 2

    Simmer and Cool

    Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

  3. 3

    Strain the Mixture

    Once cooled, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the spices and vanilla bean. Transfer the infused Tuaca to a clean bottle.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 4

    Prepare the Drink

  2. 5

    Mix with Club Soda

    Top off the glass with club soda (240 ml) and stir gently to combine the flavors.

  3. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with fresh orange slices and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade Tuaca!
