From Medicine to Treats

Originating in Renaissance-period apothecaries, the cordial was an alcohol-based medicine – and aphrodisiac – made with fermented fruits, spices, and herbs to stimulate the heart and improve circulation. Eventually cordials became a fruit-based alcohol and in the late 1800s, around the time of the truffle. Later, a candy that was deliciously decadent and alcohol-free.
