Product details
Biały Bocian Advocaat is a Polish egg liqueur with vanilla, made from egg yolks, milk, Madagascar vanilla, aromatic brandy and grain spirit, and bottled at 16% ABV in a 50cl bottle. Poles know the style as Adwokat egg liqueur, and this version follows a recipe from Polmos Bielsko-Biała that uses spirit made from Wielkopolska cereals. It pours pale yellow and is thick enough to coat a spoon, so it behaves more like a pouring custard than a clear liqueur. It is a good choice for anyone who prefers a sweet, creamy glass after dinner to a sharp spirit.
Biały Bocian Advocaat tasting notes
- Nose: Vanilla pod, warm custard and a faint brandy note.
- Palate: Rich and velvety, with egg-yolk creaminess, sweet vanilla and a gentle warmth from the grain spirit.
- Finish: Long and soft, ending on vanilla and a light, biscuit-like sweetness.
How to serve Biały Bocian Advocaat
Keep the bottle in the fridge and pour it cold into a small liqueur glass, or spoon it over vanilla ice cream, fresh strawberries or a slice of sernik, the Polish baked cheesecake. It also makes a quick dessert sauce for warm waffles or pancakes. A small glass with coffee rounds off a long Sunday lunch, and a bottle is an easy addition to the dessert table at a family celebration.
Snowball and other Biały Bocian Advocaat cocktails
Advocaat is the classic base for one of Britain's best-known festive drinks.
- Snowball: add 50 ml advocaat and 10 ml fresh lime juice to a highball glass over ice, top with 150 ml sparkling lemonade and stir gently.
- Warm Bombardino: heat 40 ml advocaat with 20 ml brandy until just warm, pour into a heatproof glass and finish with a spoonful of whipped cream.
How it compares
Among the brand's 16% cream liqueurs, Advocaat is the most traditional. Biały Bocian Salty Caramel swaps vanilla custard for toffee and a pinch of sea salt, while Biały Bocian Cuckoo Candies leans on cocoa and chocolate. Advocaat is the thickest of the three and the only one built on egg yolk, which explains its rich, custard-like body.
Good to know
Biały Bocian Advocaat is produced by Polmos Bielsko-Biała in southern Poland. Because it is made with egg and milk, keep the bottle in the fridge once opened and check the label for allergen details. Wodka Company sends Biały Bocian Advocaat 50cl from its London shop to addresses across the UK.

Frequently asked questions
Is Biały Bocian Advocaat the same as Dutch advocaat?
Yes, broadly. Biały Bocian Advocaat is the Polish version of the egg-and-brandy liqueur that the Dutch call advocaat and Poles call Adwokat. Unlike many Dutch recipes, this one also includes milk, which gives it a silkier, more pourable texture.
What is the difference between Biały Bocian Advocaat and Biały Bocian Panna Cotta with Raspberry?
Biały Bocian Advocaat is built on egg yolk, Madagascar vanilla and brandy, so it tastes like rich custard. Biały Bocian Panna Cotta with Raspberry is also a 16% cream liqueur, but it pairs vanilla cream with tart berries for a lighter, fruitier sip.
Can you cook with Biały Bocian Advocaat?
Yes, Biały Bocian Advocaat makes a ready-made boozy custard: fold it into whipped cream for a trifle topping, spoon it over poached pears, or swirl a little through a cheesecake mix before baking.
