Product details
Nalewka Babuni Raspberry Liqueur is a Polish raspberry nalewka from the Nalewka Babuni range, made from spirit and macerated raspberries, at 18% ABV in a 50cl bottle. Labelled Malinowa, it is the summery member of the family: juicy, fragrant and gentler in tartness than the quince. The colour is a bright raspberry red, and the fruit tastes freshly picked rather than cooked. It suits anyone who prefers a soft, fruity drink at a modest strength, and it is an easy first nalewka for newcomers.
Nalewka Babuni Raspberry tasting notes
- Nose: Crushed raspberries, raspberry jam and a light floral lift.
- Palate: Soft and sweet-tart, with jammy berry fruit.
- Finish: Fresh and fruity, short to medium in length.
How to drink Nalewka Babuni Raspberry
Chill it lightly and pour a small glass with summer fruit tarts, or use it as a sauce: a raspberry nalewka over ice cream, pavlova or naleśniki with sweet cream cheese makes an instant dessert. Poles have long stirred raspberry syrup into hot tea in winter, and a splash of this nalewka does the same job for grown-ups. It suits garden parties, birthday teas and relaxed summer evenings.
What to mix with Nalewka Babuni Raspberry
- Raspberry Mint Cooler: muddle half a lime, cut into wedges, with a few mint leaves in a highball, add crushed ice, 50 ml Nalewka Babuni Raspberry and 100 ml soda water, then stir.
- Raspberry Bellini: pour 25 ml of the nalewka into a chilled flute and top it slowly with 100 ml prosecco.
How it compares
Nalewka Babuni Cherry is deeper and more tart, so the raspberry is the softer choice for dessert. For a fuller, vodka-based raspberry, Toruńska Raspberry runs at 32% against this nalewka's 18% and has a deeper ruby colour. Among Polish raspberry nalewka styles, this one leans fresh and fragrant rather than heavy.
