    Haven't tried the recipe - but Kirsch is a clear spirit, not a lot like cherry brandy, really. It's not that difficult to find - so good luck!

    this is my recipe http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=67162688&postcount=3
    I've only ever used kirsch so i'm not sure about the cherry liquor..but wiki says 'Unlike cherry liqueurs and so-called “cherry brandies”, Kirschwasser is not sweet'

    I bough some jars of cherries in kirsch in JC's in Swords, so keep an eye out for them in supermarkets - haven't used them yet - hopefully they are good plus saves buying the bottle!

    Yes, kirsch is a clear schnaps made from cherries, not like cherry liqueur at all!
