Liquor of nuts looking at Jupiter

  • Jupiter will walk us through its highest beauty on August nights. It will be in opposition, that is, because of its apparent position you will be able to see it all night and it is the nearest station to Earth. He takes binoculars and he knows his satellites. Enjoy it!

The god Jupiter had the acorn. In fact, the same word is used in Latin to pronounce the acorn and the peak of the penis or clitoris. There's a good flutter among the etymologists. Most say that the name of Juglans of the walnut (Juglans regia) comes from the Latin Jovis glans, that is, a acorn or grain worthy of a god like Jupiter. The Roman dictionary and poet Marcus Verrius Flaccus, who died two thousand years ago, said that God would leave them alone. The fruit of the walnut is extracted from the mattress and the remaining nut is divided into two halves joined by a neck or a thin edge. That's why it's easy to break. Our Marcus said “iugulandam”, to which you have to cut your throat. Apparently, the nut edge evoked the neck, in which the head and body are almost apart. And the name of Juglans has its origin in the “iugum glans”, that is, the acorn of the neck or the jugular acorn.

Let's leave the linguists' biases and let's enjoy them. Nuts are now green, with fluffy ropes. If you grab that step, he's going to go, then he's told me I've. The one I come from like all the green parts of the tree has juglone and is used to make dyes, paints, cosmetics and food. This juglone, which produces dirty dwarfs, blackens the beverages. In addition to the night, it adds a bitter and elegant point. Let's enjoy them.

A stimulating wine is made with 50 grams of leaf or a liter of green clay wine. By the eighth day he will be about to drink.

Mixed with some grains of green nuts and herbs, strong drinks are made in many places. Among them, the well-known Catalan ratafia.

In Italy, only a very intense drink called nononono is produced with the green nut grain. Take 7-9 units and discarded 1 liter of alcohol, add a bleached lemon, a cinnamon stick and desired odor plants. Place in a fairly large glass container and tighten tightly into the tank. Put the container in the sun and shake it occasionally. It will be done for 5-7 weeks. Filter and melt by adding sugary water to the desired alcoholic strength.

Once, the witches picked up the nuts with the bare legs on the night of the summer solstice. Of course, it was witches who had the knowledge of making these kinds of beverages that everyone liked. Sit down as a witch, make a liquor of nuts and enjoy wet your throat in the splendor of August of the planet Jupiter.

Watering in winter
In February, when we are in the middle of winter, the priority is to have a well-watered body. Just like the walnut is doing: it uses the roots as a reservoir in winter, it needs short and thick roots to collect water and nutrients from the soil.
