Video by lasofregida (Instagram, TikTok) showing how she makes ratafia.

Ratafia is a traditional liquor from Catalonia. It's made by macerating green walnuts in aiguardent (a distilled alcohol) and fresh herbs that are picked on Midsummer's Day (Sant Joan, 24th June), though in the Empordà region (where lasofregida is from) this is done on Saint Peter's Day (29th June).

Many families make their own ratafia, particularly in the Comarques Gironines area. Each family recipe will be a little bit different depending on what herbs they use.

The song in the video is Goigs de Sant Martí by Fetus.
