You take a bottle of "aguardiente" burning-water, or liqueur, you ad a piece of propolis, wait for a month, move the bottle time to time and you will have a good Brandy, so good as the Osborne one.

Propolis with alcohol is being used in any countries against varroa. I have used it against Phythophtora in citrus, and ancient Romans and Boers used propolis to cure wounds.

This magic potion, -magic because it has not been studied enough- is really nice, you can add a few honey and would be better than the "Cognac Napoleon".

Don´t forget that you have to use drinking alcohol, like aquavit, eau de vie, kümmel.

Salud!
