Tickle Your Taste Buds With Amarula And A Touch Of Love This Valentine’s

Amarula cream liqueur from South Africa February 8, 2018: Never heard of Amarula? It’s a much-loved cream liqueur with a lovely fruity flavour originating from South Africa, Amarula Cream (17% alcohol by volume) is made with sugar, cream and the fruit of the African marula tree known locally as the Elephant tree. The Marula tree bears fruit once a year. Elephants enjoy eating the fruit and travel for miles to get a taste, drawn by its exotic scent. Because of the marula tree’s association with elephants, the distiller has made them its symbol and supports elephant conservation efforts. Once the ripe marula fruit has been gathered, the stones and skin are removed, and the flesh is fermented like a wine.
