How it is made

Cinnamon schnapps is typically made by infusing neutral spirits with cinnamon and sugar, while Goldwasser is produced using a blend of herbs, spices, and a base of grain alcohol, with the addition of gold flakes for visual appeal.

History

Cinnamon schnapps has its roots in Germany, where schnapps originated as a strong distilled spirit. Goldwasser, on the other hand, dates back to the 16th century in Gdansk, Poland, where it was initially created as a medicinal tonic before evolving into a popular liqueur.

In cocktails

Bartenders often use cinnamon schnapps in cocktails that require a sweet and spicy kick, such as in apple or pumpkin-flavored drinks. Goldwasser can be used to add a luxurious touch to cocktails, often served in a chilled glass to showcase its gold flakes. Both liqueurs can also be enjoyed on their own or as part of a layered shot.

Worth knowing

Goldwasser is one of the oldest liqueurs still in production, with its recipe remaining largely unchanged for centuries.
