    Sorry to sound flaky, but, when adding lemon to the varonka is it to be sliced, wedged or just the peel?

    I agree that hrebicek is clove

    as i was curious about what a rose apple is (and i wanted to avoid doing anything useful :) ) i did a bit of research:

    rose apple is Syzygium jambos http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/rose_apple.htm

    while the clove is Syzygium aromaticum
    http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/clove.htm

    from the looks of it all Syzygia all called hřebíčkovec in czech (the one for cloves being called hrebickovec vonny) thus leading to the odd translation of hřebíček=rose apple in some sources
