Arrow Peach Schnapps is produced by Barton Brands — the value-tier schnapps line under the same parent as Ten High and other Barton spirits. A sweet, peach-flavored liqueur at 15% ABV based on Arrow’s century-old cordial heritage. Clean, true-to-fruit peach flavor that works in Fuzzy Navels, Sex on the Beach, peach iced tea cocktails, and as a straightforward peach sweetener in any mixed drink. Arrow occupies the affordable end of the schnapps market — making it the bartender’s default for high-volume peach cocktails where cost per ounce matters. At 15% ABV it’s sweet, low-proof, and fruit-forward, mixing into anything that benefits from peach flavor without adding significant alcohol. The peach flavor is genuine and consistent across batches. Tasting Notes Nose: Sweet ripe peach and light floral notes. Palate: Clean and sweet — peach candy, light floral, and gentle warmth. Finish: Short and sweet. Specs Producer: Barton Brands — Style: Peach schnapps — ABV: 15% — Size: 750ml Browse all liqueurs at Wooden Cork. Frequently Asked Questions What is peach schnapps and what cocktails use it? Peach schnapps is a sweet, peach-flavored liqueur typically bottled at 15–20% ABV. It’s distinct from European-style schnapps (which is dry and high-proof) — American peach schnapps is sweet, fruit-forward, and designed for mixing. The classic cocktails that use peach schnapps are the Fuzzy Navel (peach schnapps + orange juice), Sex on the Beach (peach schnapps + vodka + cranberry + orange juice), the Woo Woo (peach schnapps + vodka + cranberry), and Bellini variations (peach schnapps + Prosecco as a simplified substitute for peach purée). It also works well in peach iced tea cocktails, sweet tea vodka drinks, and as a flavor modifier in any recipe calling for peach sweetness. What’s the difference between peach schnapps and peach liqueur? The terms are often used interchangeably in American bars and recipe books, but there is a technical distinction. Schnapps in the American commercial sense (DeKuyper, Arrow, Bols) refers to sweet, flavored liqueurs at 15–23% ABV made from neutral spirit with fruit flavoring added. Traditional European schnapps (particularly German and Austrian Obstler) is an unsweetened, high-proof fruit brandy made from distilled fruit — the opposite in style. When a cocktail recipe calls for “peach schnapps,” it means the American sweet style, not European dry schnapps. True peach liqueur from craft producers is typically made from actual peach maceration or distillation and has more complex, less sweet fruit character. Can I substitute peach schnapps with something else? Yes. In most cocktail recipes, peach schnapps can be substituted with: peach liqueur (richer, more complex fruit character, often higher ABV), peach nectar or purée plus a neutral sweetener (non-alcoholic), or bourbon with peach bitters (for a spirit-forward variation). For Fuzzy Navels and Sex on the Beach specifically, peach nectar is the closest non-alcoholic substitute. If substituting a premium peach liqueur (like Rémy Martin’s Cointreau Pêche or a craft peach eau-de-vie), reduce the quantity slightly since higher-ABV versions carry more flavor intensity per ounce. {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What is peach schnapps and what cocktails use it?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Peach schnapps is a sweet, peach-flavored liqueur at 15-20% ABV for mixing.
