1. To begin making your homemade black walnut liqueur, slice approximately 25 green walnuts into quarters and place them in a half gallon or gallon sized mason jar.
2. Add 1 cinnamon stick and a few star anise pieces.
3. Add the zest of one lemon, peeled into large strips.
4. Cover the ingredients with vodka (we used about 3 cups of vodka – no need to purchase quality vodka, the cheap stuff will do just fine!), place a lid on and shake. Then set the jar in your pantry, or another cool place to steep.

Nocino, or Black Walnuts Liqueur (Recipe) Forager

1. Wearing gloves, cut the walnuts in half.
2. After the one month maceration, strain the liquid, discard the solids. Strain the liquid through the finest strainer you have. There will be gunk in the bottom and lots of black-mucky looking material. You may need to wash the strainer during the process if it gets gunked up.
3. Add the maple syrup and water until it tastes good to you. I suggest starting by adding 3 cups of water, and 3 cups of maple syrup, and adjusting from there.
4. Store the nocino in air tight containers, such as mason jars and allow to mature for at least 6 months. Taste it occasionally and you will notice how the tannins soften over time. I often keep it in the freezer and enjoy it chilled.
