    Was good. This might call for additional field research. Could be dangerous...

    Oh man, when I was 16-17, a buddy of mines older brother would buy us hooch sometimes. We wanted bang for the buck so a pint of peppermint schnapps seemed a solid investment. I could easily drink it straight unlike stouter stuff. Usually about the time I was polishing off the pint I'd get sick and barf it all back up. Good times!

    no no no, this is a different schnapps. This is real schnapps.
    German Schnapps

    The version of Schnapps found in German-speaking regions is not like you might be used to in the United States. It is colorless, clear, and offers a light, fruity flavor.

    This version is created by using fermented fruit in the distillation process. And, when it is bottled, no sugar is added. The end result is usually 80 proof, and its taste and appearance greatly resembles the French eau-de-vie and the Obstler found in German-speaking countries.

    To further define the beverage, its name can also mean a number of other German-made, distilled spirits, including Jagermeister, Steinhager, Kummel, and Korn.

    When creating German Schnapps, fruits such as cherries, plums, pears, and apples are most often. Cherries are the most expensive fruit to use, while apples are the least expensive.

    Obstwasser is created by combining pears and apples, Williamsbirne is the product of only pears, Zwetchgenwasser is made with plums, and Kirschwasser is made with cherries.

    Austrian Schnapps is often created using Apricot, but you’d be hard pressed to find a fruit other than these five used to create German Schnapps.

    Himbeergeist, a spirit flavored with raspberry, is also considered to be a Schnapps. However, when it is created, the raspberries are not fermented.

    I would be surprised if the stuff we were quaffing is 80 proof, it tasted too smooth/light for that high a number. I'm thinking more in the 40-60 proof range but what do I know, I'm Irish.

    Interesting info on the various types of Schnapps to be found.

    You should get a hold of Jan and find out exactly what it was so I can go buy some.

    It's bad enough when your kid drinks it; to have a father drink it is just downright embarrassing.

    My father gave up on alcohol almost 30 years ago and now is an extreme lightweight.

    I'm proud of his many years of sobriety, not embarrassed about his drink choice.
