Alkermes liqueur is an Italian liqueur with ancient origins and has a long history dating back to the Middle Ages.
Its name comes from the Arabic "al-qirmiz," which means "the red," due to its characteristic color.
This liqueur is known for its sweet and aromatic flavor, as well as its deep red color.
It was originally prepared as a therapeutic elixir made from herbs and spices, and was very popular with European nobility during the Renaissance.
Alkermes' traditional ingredients include alcohol, saffron, cloves, cinnamon, vanilla and other spices, which give the liqueur its distinctive flavor and red colour. The preparation of Alkermes involves the process of infusing spices and herbs into alcohol, followed by filtration and, sweetening with sugar.
Alkermes can be consumed on its own as an after-dinner liqueur, but it is also used in many culinary recipes, such as in desserts, such as tiramisu or trifle, where it adds a unique flavor. Furthermore, it is often used in the preparation of some cocktails.
