Alchermes (also spelled Alchermes or Alkermes) is a traditional bright red Italian liqueur, flavored with a blend of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, vanilla, and other aromatic spices. With its warm, spiced notes and striking ruby hue, it has been used for centuries in both pastry recipes and as a digestif.
Most famously, Alchermes is a key ingredient in classic Italian desserts like Zuppa Inglese, Schiacciata Fiorentina, and Pesche Dolci. A few spoonfuls add depth, color, and fragrance that transform baked goods into something truly special.
