Sounds like this is a liqueur that tastes better as more of it is
consumed. :-)

Subject: [CHAT] Buddha's hand liqueur & Starfruit pickles
About a year ago, I put a smallish Buddha's hand citron in a pint jar
then filled the jar with 153-proof grain alcohol. I thought it was
about time to test this concoction Xmas day, so I poured a liqueur
glass [about an ounce, I guess] full, screwed up my courage, and
tasted it. Terribile!
So today--thinking the idea was good, just the results were not--I
dropped a sugar cube in an empty liqueur glass and then half-filled
the glass with the concoction, and topped it off with about as much
water as there was booze. Much better; not bad, in fact, but no
triple sec.
Made a jar of my first-ever starfruit pickles today. Raw pack, hot
syrup. They're supposed to age in the fridge for a month.
