Goldschlager liqueur

Goldschläger Liqueur is a Swiss cinnamon liqueur, very distinctive for containing fine flakes of edible gold in suspension, which gives it a shiny and luxurious appearance. This liqueur has a sweet and spicy flavor, predominantly cinnamon, and is known for its intense warmth on the palate.

Originating from Switzerland, Goldschläger has become popular internationally as a special ingredient in cocktails and pastry recipes, adding a distinctive and elegant touch in both flavor and presentation.

In terms of properties, besides its strong cinnamon flavor which can help stimulate digestion, Goldschläger liqueur has a high alcohol content (usually around 43% ABV), so it should be used in moderation in cooking. Its main characteristic is the edible gold, which does not add flavor but provides a striking visual effect in drinks and desserts.

Regarding synonyms in Spanish used in Latin America, although there are no specific alternative names for this liqueur, it may be referred to simply as cinnamon liqueur with gold or golden cinnamon liqueur due to its inclusion of edible gold, but most recipes name it directly as Goldschläger.
