Tentura?

[seagrace]

My father in law was enamored of this Greek drink on a recent visit. He found a recipe and has made it and it's rather good! A great digestif.

I'm curious if anyone has tried this and knows if you can get it in the states, or if anyone else has a recipe (for comparison). His recipe vaguely tastes like Red Hots candy, however with less sugar, more complicated flavors and no food coloring. Hmm, I guess the only thing they have in common is the cinnamon.

His recipe uses Vodka, sugar, cinnamon, clove and vanilla. No fruit. It was excellent post-Thanksgiving dinner.

Any ideas?

Thanks

My wife and I visited Greece 2 years ago, and she loved the Tentura. I have managed to get 1 bottle from Greece when a friend visited, but it is now empty. Would you share your father in law's recipe with me?
