We Need to Create Pages[edit]

I went throught and added links to all the pages for types of nalewka listed but most have not pages (only three do). If someone knows more about this please create pages for the rest. To make this easy just click on any of the links that are red.

Among the common main ingredients are haw (głogówka), Cornus mas (dereniówka), juniper (jałowcówka)^[1]^[2], ginger (imbirówka), green Persian walnut (orzechówka), cherries (wiśniówka), wormwood (piołunówka), anise (anyżówka), apricots (morelówka) and many more. Among the nalewkas are also mixtures of alcohol with other liquids, such as honey-based krupnik, coffee-based kawówka, and porterówka made of Porter beer.

The literal translation of "nalewka" is tincture. There are various medical tinctures and term "nalewka" applies to all sorts of medical purpose alkoholic liqids. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.220.21.96 (talk) 13:23, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Large well-stocked Russian bars feature hundreds of such nastoikas, made by infusing various herbs (e.g., tarragon), vegetables (e.g., pepper, horseradish), fruits (e.g., lemon) and berries (e.g., cranberry) into vodka. For example, Stolichnaya exports 15 various nastoikas.

how the fuck is this even relevant enough to a polish beverage? srsly, it's like "ok, this article is about a polish beverage, but hey, let's talk about russia. russia's more relevant anyway." ... can't we just put this part about non-polish equivalents into their own paragraph. that way the article would also be a bit longer and better structured.

||||There is a definition in polish law for nalewka. I am no native speaker, so maybe someone of you could translate and add it. Some facts are different to this wiki page. (Sorry for my bad entry. I dont know how to use this part of wikipedia....)|||
