What do you mean 'proper ' alcohol piglet??
I had a scoot around Leclerc and asked a local yokel with a healthy looking drinkers nose what I should put my cherries in to make a liquor and he picked out a bottle of clear 'Alcohol for fruit preservation'.
Is this what you mean??
I had wondered if he would have just as happily pointed at paint stripper...until I realized it was 10 euros a litre.
If this is what you mean- what exactly is it???
Anyone else know??

My lemoncello is now in the freezer and should be ready by 6pm tonight!! Good timing or what??
I must have used slightly smaller lemons as it just made up one litre- so I poured it back into the litre bottle I'd just used it from ( having topped up my rhubarb schnapps with the left over 30cl.
Excited now!!!!
