Description

Frangelico is a sweet and aromatic liqueur originating from Italy, specifically from the Piedmont region. This liqueur is made from toasted hazelnuts, along with herbs, roots, and cocoa, which gives it a characteristic flavor and a very special aroma, ideal for use in dessert recipes, cocktails, and sweet preparations.

The name Frangelico comes from the Franciscan monks ("Frangeli") who traditionally used similar ingredients in their recipes and home remedies. Today, Frangelico is recognized as a high-quality liqueur that adds a unique and sophisticated touch to various culinary creations.

Among its properties, Frangelico stands out for its intense hazelnut flavor and notes of vanilla and chocolate, making it an excellent complement to desserts like tiramisu, ice cream, cakes, or sweet sauces. Furthermore, its versatility allows it to be mixed with coffee or used to infuse alcoholic beverages and cocktails.

Regarding synonyms or similar terms in Spanish from Latin America, there are no other names for Frangelico, as it is a registered trademark and a specific product. However, in recipes, it may be referred to simply as hazelnut liqueur to facilitate understanding in different regions.
