The condition for the mugwort sake of the present invention is that it contains a specific amount of mugwort relative to the distilled liquor. Here, examples of distilled spirits include shochu, vodka, and whiskey, but shochu is most suitable from the viewpoint of synergistic effects with mugwort. There are no particular restrictions on the alcohol content of the distilled liquor, and the user can select the distilled liquor that he or she usually drinks, such as 35%, 30%, 25%, and 20% alcohol.

よもぎは、特に乾燥よもぎの枝葉(かいよう)を水洗し

Mugwort is particularly effective, especially dried wormwood branches and leaves that have been washed with water and then sliced into thin slices.

The method for drying mugwort may be either natural drying or forced drying. In the case of drying under the sun, for example, if mugwort is dried for about 7 hours/day for 7 days, 500 g of mugwort becomes about 150 g, and the drying rate does not particularly improve after this point. Therefore, even in the case of forced drying, it is sufficient to dry to the extent that the same drying rate as described above is obtained.

If the amount of mugwort added to distilled liquor is less than 16.6g/l, not only will the active ingredients of mugwort not be fully utilized, but the liquor will not have a refreshing taste, and it is difficult to say that it is suitable for drinking. .

On the other hand, the amount of mugwort added to distilled liquor is 111.1g.
/f! If the amount is more than that, you will start to feel the bitterness and dark taste characteristic of mugwort, making it unsuitable for drinking. Therefore, when 16.6 to 111.1 g/β of dried mugwort is added to distilled liquor, the aroma, color, crispness, and transparency are excellent.

In the present invention, as a component added to the distilled liquor, other than dried mugwort, a sweet component can also be added. So-called saccharides are suitable as such sweetening components, but organic synthetic components having sweetness may also be used.
