Minty Minttu liqueur from Finnish distillers Koskenkorva, who are well known for their 013 Vodka and its many flavours. Minttu is an intense liqueur, with a mountain of mint flavours behind it. You can enjoy it neat, but they also recommend trying it in a hot chocolate if you fancy a delicious, warming drink.
I fell in love with this in Lapland. It's a common drink in Finland, often added to hot water or to hot chocolate. I always have a bottle in.
I first came across this, whilst in Finland in the middle of the winter. We would have a nice mug of hot chocolate with a good slosh if Mintu in it after it had a day snowshoeing. Went down a treat, and I now order it regularly now in England. It is just so nice!
My favourite winter drink: A mug of hot chocolate A dash of Minttu Whipped cream on top Absolutely delicious as dessert - or just because.
