If you are not an experienced winemaker, then the first thing to do is figure out the types of alcohol. The tincture can be prepared in three ways.
The first is the simplest. Plum or any other berries are insisted on vodka. This method is quite expensive, because a good vodka is not very cheap, and buying inexpensive vodka is more expensive for the body.

If you bought a good grain alcohol, took distilled water, then you get a product from which the body will not be anything but good. Naturally, provided that the use of liquid in small quantities.
