Experimenting with ‘smreka’, a Bosnian recipe for wild fermented juniper berries (makes a sort of low alcohol probiotic soft drink that you add a little lemon and sugar to, ideally) The recipe is to add 4 parts spring water to 1 part berries, and wait 2 weeks to a month. I inoculated it with about an ounce of kombucha to get it on the right track. No idea how this will turn out.

Addendum: Turned out great! It took about 2 weeks before the berries stopped percolating, and settled on the bottom. Taken on its own it was fresh and sour with an oddly citrus flavor (and pine, obviously). It made a great juice with a little sweetener (particularly agave). I used it as a mixer with gin and tonic, and it was fantastic. With just tonic, it's juniper flavor made it into a virgin GT that had more character than most alcoholic GTs. Just finished drinking this batch, and have 2 more on the way (with slightly riper berries, now that it's late September instead of early).

Smreka…

… ist ein Getränk, das es angeblich nur in Sarajevo gibt. Es wird aus Wacholderbeeren gemacht und schmeckt, naja, durchaus nach Wacholderbeeren, was als Getränk schon etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig ist. Man sollte schon ordentlich Zucker reinmachen.

Gemacht wird es (wenn ich es richtig verstanden habe, nachmachen also nur auf eigene Gefahr) so: Ein Kilo Wacholderbeeren mit 15 Liter Wasser aufgießen, zwei Zitronen in Scheiben schneiden und dazu und alles luftdicht verschließen. Drei Monate stehen lassen.

Im Glas sieht es dann aus wie Limonade, also gelb-trüb.
