Those who rather play the lone hand purchase their own distilling kit and educate themselves on how to become producers instead.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, everyone with their own alcoholic beverage is proud as a peacock, willing to show their pride and joy fruit distillate to anyone who cross their doorstep. Especially on special events like Easter, birthdays, weddings, or on the occasion of unplanned visits from friends, relatives. Warning! Guests shouldn\u2019t shy away from and refuse the host\u2019s offer, because the poor man would take offence at them. They are so passionate about p\u00e1linka as if it was their love child; they want everyone to know how proud they are of it.<\/p>\n<h2>How to drink p\u00e1linka<\/h2>\n<p>Beware! While in the countryside they say you should take it fast like a shot, the recent p\u00e1linka revolution\u2019s representatives beg to differ. They suggest you take your time, indulge in its fruity smell first (they don\u2019t pour it into a tulip shaped glass for nothing), and then enjoy each and every sip, slow and easy. Thanks to its pretty high alcohol content (minimum 37.5%), you\u2019ll soon feel it kick in unless you are careful enough. The choice is yours, make it an experience!<\/p>\n<h2>P\u00e1linka encyclopaedia<\/h2>\n<p>P\u00e1linka is under the European Union\u2019s geographic designation protection, meaning that only products that were produced, fermented, distilled, aged and bottled in Hungarian territory can be sold as \u201cp\u00e1linka\u201d. Considering the flavours, the drink also known as \u201cfence-ripper\u201d can be made from a list of ripe fruits: plum, apricot, apple, sour cherry, pear, apple, and so on. We differentiate eight p\u00e1linka regions, all of which are famous for one specific fruit; for instance, Kecskem\u00e9t\u2019s area is the land of quality apricot p\u00e1linka, but B\u00e9k\u00e9s\u2019s p\u00e1linka makers specialize in plum distillate.<\/p>\n<p>Photo: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.egyjokeprolad.hu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Egy j\u00f3 k\u00e9p
