Coming in at 30 percent ABV, this anise and honey liqueur is a Mexican staple. Made in the Yucatán, it is supposedly the modern incarnation of an ancient honey liqueur made by the Mayans. This particular recipe has been around since the mid-1500s. The honey used to make the liqueur gets its flavor from the Xtabentún, a small white flower with a trumpet shape similar to that of a Morning Glory.
