arrakkipunssi

Finnish

Etymology

arrakki + punssi

Noun

arrakkipunssi

  1. A liqueur based on arrack, neutral spirits and flavorings. Originates in Sweden and mostly not known outside Nordic countries. There's no established English name for it, but "arrack liqueur" might be a good bet.

Usage notes

Sometimes translated as "punch" into English, but that is actually a false friend.
