    Quick Overview

    PR Peppermint Schnapps Essence 20 ml – essence for ice-cold peppermint schnapps

    PR Peppermint Schnapps Essence turns spirit and sugar into a crystal-clear peppermint schnapps – sweet, intensely fresh and with a cooling menthol rush, like a candy cane in liquid form.

    The 20 ml bottle makes 750 ml of finished spirit. Instructions are on the label.

    Serve straight from the freezer as a shot, in hot chocolate or in crisp, fresh cocktails.

    PR Peppermint Schnapps Essence 20 ml

    Few things wake up a party as effectively as a tray of ice-cold peppermint shots. This style – the clear, sweet mint schnapps – is a modern classic in bars and on the ski slopes, loved for its double effect: first the icy chill of the menthol, then the warmth of the spirit. Peppermint Schnapps Essence gives you exactly that experience, easily and at a fraction of the price.

    Peppermint has a unique knack for fooling the senses – your mouth feels cold even when the drink itself need not be chilled. Combine that with a proper spell in the freezer and you have a shot that feels like a breath of mountain air in the middle of the party.

    Colour & Appearance

    The finished schnapps is perfectly clear and bright as glass. The sugar gives it a slightly syrupy texture, and straight from the freezer it turns thick and creamy, like liquid ice.

    Nose

    The nose is pure, powerful peppermint – like crushing a candy cane or rubbing fresh mint leaves between your fingers. Behind the cool menthol there is a sweet, almost vanilla-like roundness and a green, herbal freshness.

    Palate

    The palate explodes with peppermint. It starts sweet, like mint toffee or mint chocolate without the chocolate, and quickly moves into that characteristic cooling sensation that spreads across the tongue and up into the nose. The sweetness balances the sharpness of the menthol, so the overall impression is smooth rather than piercing. Beneath it all you sense the warmth of the spirit, creating that glorious contrast between hot and cold.

    Finish

    The finish is long, cool and clean. Your breath feels as fresh as after a throat lozenge, and a mild sweetness stays on the lips. The chill lingers – long after the glass is empty, every breath feels a little cooler than usual.

    How to Use

    The essence is mixed with vodka or neutral spirit plus sugar. 20 ml makes 750 ml of finished spirit. Instructions are on the label.

    Serving Suggestions

    • An ice-cold shot straight from the freezer – the classic.
    • A splash in hot chocolate with whipped cream.
    • With chocolate liqueur or coffee liqueur for an after-dinner-mint cocktail.
    • In coffee after a meal, or poured over vanilla ice cream.
    • With soda, lime and ice for a light, fresh long drink.

    About the Essence

    Peppermint is part of the PR (Prestige) series and a sure-fire winner for parties, ski trips and every gathering of the festive season. It is also available in 1000 ml and 25 litres for those serving a crowd.

    Do keep the finished bottle in the freezer. Thanks to the alcohol and the sugar it will not freeze, turning wonderfully thick and syrupy instead. The mint schnapps is also a rewarding ingredient in desserts: try it in a chocolate mousse, in the cream for a meringue cake or in the icing on your brownies.
