ugh.  I quickly read this and deleted it before it registered.  I'm back to 
say; What are you saying Avraham??  Schnapps is a waaaaaaaaay over sweetened 
tongue coating ick, whereas, Kirsch is a much more pleasant mouth feel and 
taste.  I have been giving out small bottles of it to folks for the holidays 
and wow do they like it.  I use it in making truffles, fruit or nut 
quickbreads, cheesecakes, poundcakes, marinades and a nice addition to a 
milkshake.
I have recently re-discovered orange flavor liquours too.  At the present 
time, Grand Gala is at the top of my list.  mmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
