Varianka (fruit vodka)

Wash dried fruit under running water and put it into a heatproof ceramic pot. Cover the mixture with vodka and leave the fruit to soak for 30 minutes.

Make the dough, mixing flour and warm water with a pinch of salt. Divide it into 2 halves.

Seal the pot with the first half of the dough. Cover it with a bread crust or several bread slices before sealing it again with the second half of the dough to ensure that the pot is sealed tight.

Put it in the oven at 210°F / 100°C and leave to simmer for 4 hours.

Wait for varianka to cool and then chill it well.

Serve the drink with soaked dry fruit.
