Schnapps
is most popular in Germany, where it originated for medicinal uses. Austria,
Denmark, and Switzerland are also big on the schnapps. European drinkers rarely
mix their schnapps into cocktails, opting instead to enjoy it straight out of
the bottle and often before or after a meal. What is Schnapps? Schnapps is a
description of fermented spirit that has duplicity definitions. Essentially,
true schnapps is made by fermenting fruit juices along with the base liquor. In
this sense, schnapps is considered a fruit brandy. The result of this schnapps
process is a stronger and often clear distilled spirit, much like a lightly
flavored vodka. In distinction, schnapps in the United States is often used to represent
a category of luscious, fruit-flavored liqueurs. Instead of infusing the fruit,
liqueurs are often made by steeping fruits in alcohol after fermentation and/or
distillation.
Ingredients
are essentials natures made, 80 botanical ingredients from the highest-grade
herbs, blossoms, roots and fruits from around the globe are crafted into
distinct macerates, then combined in modern-day alchemy into herbal spirits. The
full ingredient list is a closely guarded secret, but raise a glass to your
lips and you’ll taste all four corners of the world. Unchanged in recipe and unflagging
in popularity. As identify often with these changes of schnapps, aroma and
intensity additives are usually combined. It’s a distinctive taste that you
will never compare to an authentic schnapps. True experts can single out a specific
note, can't tell you how they make them. The vision is altered and afterwards a
greater respect for nature, sooner or later it will become known as the patron
saint of scroungers.
In
European, the German word for schnapps drops one 'p' and translates into
English to mean hard liquor, booze, and the like. Schnapps is used to describe
any strong distilled spirit, particularly those of at least the amount
percentage of ABV (alcohol by volume) is twice will be the proof. The expert’s spiritus
frumenti is trying to make 80 ingredients get along together might sound like a
crazy objective, but the expert’s distillers have a real talent for it. The
word also comes with a loose translation of snap, referring to the strength of
the spirits. If you prefer, a liqueur of the same flavor can be used as a
substitute for schnapps, but it's important to remember that often (though not
always) the liqueur is sweeter.
The
unique elixir was created in Germany by craft master while times may have
changed, but the recipe has not. In the darkness of their depths, the macerates
are left to blend and mature for up to a year until they become schnapps
perfection. While schnapps can technically refer to any liquor, it is often
used for fruit brandies distilled from fresh fruit juices. These are often
called fruit schnapps. Apple, apricot, cherry, pear, and plum are the most
popular flavors and many distillers grow their own fruit for their schnapps. Schnapps
appear in a great variation of flavors and they are fun to use in cocktail
drinks. Schnapps is usually served as a digestif. The typical serving size is
30 to 60 ml, owing to the high alcohol content of the spirit and because it is
typically drunk after a meal during which wine, or some other alcoholic
beverage, has already been served.
