Hazelnut liqueur: everything you need to know.

1. a brief history: hazelnut liqueur, also known as Frangelico, has a long and colorful history. Its origins are said to date back to the Christian monks of the northern Italian region of Piedmont, where they skillfully combined locally grown hazelnuts, cocoa, vanilla and other botanical ingredients to create a liqueur - this is considered the origin of hazelnut liqueur as we know it today. The spirit was named after Fra Angelico, a hermit who lived in the hills of Piedmont in the 17th century.

2. production process: Hazelnut liqueur is usually made by soaking roasted hazelnuts in alcohol, which extracts their natural oils and flavors - this process is called "maceration." The resulting infusion is then mixed with other ingredients such as cocoa, vanilla and spices. Sometimes this is still stored to get more balance in the drop. Finally, the liqueur is sweetened.

3. flavor profile: hazelnut liqueur is known for its very lush, nutty flavor. After all, hazelnut is found in so many snacks and sweets anyway (just think of the chocolate shelf in the supermarket with Nutella unc Co.). The distinct hazelnut flavors often mix with a hint of vanilla and the pleasant texture of a liqueur and become a real treat. The degree of sweetness varies from brand to brand, ranging from slightly sweet to richly sweet. Here you have to try your way until you find the perfect hazelnut liqueur for you.

4. serving recommendations: Hazelnut liqueur can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, depending on personal preference. Here are some popular serving suggestions:

a. Neat or on the rocks: simply neat at room temperature to fully enjoy its complex flavors. Alternatively, you can pour it over ice for a refreshing twist (definitely try it that way!).

b. Coffee enhancer: add a splash of hazelnut liqueur to your coffee and discover the delicious flavor combination of coffee and hazelnut liqueur.

c. Cocktail Ingredient: Hazelnut liqueur can be a versatile ingredient for cocktails. It pairs well with a range of spirits including vodka, rum and whiskey, adding a nutty and creamy dimension to drinks.

d. Desserts: hazelnut liqueur is almost unbeatable in desserts. Drizzle ice cream, pancakes or matching baked goods with hazelnut liqueur to enhance their flavor with a hint of delicious nuttiness and sweetness.
