The name is German and means "cherry water". Kirsch dating back to vulgar Latins ceresia, meaning cherry, and Wasser from old high German wassar meaning water. Kirschwasser is sometimes drunk by itself. Traditionally, it is served cold in a very small glass and taken as a apéritif. However, people in the German-speaking regions where Kirschwasser originates would more usually serve it after dinner, and high-quality Kirschwasser would more likely be served at room temperature or warmed by the hands, like other brandies. "Kirsch" is an essential ingredient in Swiss cheese fondue recipes. Its alcoholic content is 40%-50% (80-100 proof). About ten kilograms (about 22 pounds) of cherries go into making a 750 ml bottle of Kirschwasser.
Kirschwasser is also used in some recipes, for example in Kugelhopf, Black Forest and Black Russian Cakes. de:Kirschwasser fr:Kirsch it:Kirsch nl:Kirsch ja:キルシュヴァッサー no:Kirschwasser nrm:Qùierche pt:Kirschwasser ru:Киршвассер
