FAQs
What kind of alcohol is peach schnapps?
The term schnapps refers to any American alcohol made by mixing a grain spirit with some kind of fruit (or other flavor). Peach schnapps is actually slightly different from a traditional peach liqueur.
Schnapps is typically clear and made from distilled peaches. Peach liqueur often has an amber color and is merely sweetened with peach.
When it comes to peach schnapps alcohol content, it can range anywhere from 15% to 50% ABV depending on the brand. Though distinct from traditional peach liqueur, schnapps can also be considered a liqueur.
In many cases, the two products can be used interchangeably. Either will work for this peach slushy cocktail!
Is peach schnapps gluten free?
Yes, there is no gluten present in schnapps! The alcohol is made by distilling peaches and doesn’t involve any kind of gluten product in the process.
Does peach schnapps go bad?
Yes, peach schnapps can go bad once opened. Because of the presence of sugar and fruits, this type of alcohol can spoil. Schnapps will rarely last 18 months once opened, and depending on storage conditions it may be bad before then.
Be sure to check the quality of your liqueur before using it if it’s been opened and around for any longer than a month or so.
How many calories in peach schnapps?
One serving of peach schnapps is about 1 oz of the liqueur. This one serving contains 9g of carbs and 80 calories.
