Kräuterlikör: Herbal liqueur.

Kräuterlikör is a traditional German herbal liqueur noted for its complex and aromatic blend of botanicals. This digestif is crafted with a variety of herbs, spices, and citrus peels, which are steeped in alcohol before being sweetened and aged to perfection. The precise recipe of Kräuterlikör is often a closely guarded secret, with many variants each having their unique blend of ingredients. This homemade version is an approximation, emphasizing common herbs like anise, peppermint, and chamomile, alongside warming spices like cinnamon and cloves. The liqueur is characteristically rich, earthy, and slightly sweet, typically enjoyed neat or with ice as an after-dinner drink to aid digestion.
