This Blackberry Caramel Prosecco Cocktail will be my welcome drink at my New Year’s Eve party this year. 100-year-old Thienelt Echte Kroatzbeere is a wild blackberry liqueur and a German favorite.
I always set up welcome drinks on my bar at parties. One with alcohol and one without. Consequently, this lessens the running around I have to do upon guests’ arrival. It makes things go much more smoothly. Undoubtedly, your guests will appreciate the extra time with you.
Sometimes, my non-alcoholic version is a simple riff on its tipsy twin. Instead, simply replace the Prosecco element with sparkling or mineral water in this Blackberry Caramel Prosecco cocktail.

The German Echte Kroatzbeere recipe is based on the pure juice of wild bitter-sweet forest blackberries. Created by Moritz Theinhelt in 1907, it has a wonderful fruity, bitter note. The liquor itself has unlimited versatility. Enjoy it neat, chilled, on the rocks, or in mixed drinks.
Echte Kroatzbeere is versatile:
This Blackberry Caramel Prosecco cocktail is now a new favorite of mine. However, I am also looking forward to using Echte Kroatzbeere to create a hot seasonal drink. I made orange glühwein for last night’s Christmas dinner. However, blackberry glühwein sounds like an even better idea. In other words, stay tuned.
For now, I will use Echte Kroatzbeeere in this lovely holiday libation. To begin with, the mellow sweet caramel element pairs extremely well with the slightly bitter blackberry liquor. The sparkle of the prosecco makes it all go down smoothly in one delicious blend.
Use homemade caramel syrup in this recipe. However, in case you are short on time, feel free to use a store-bought version.
Additionally, Echte Kroatbeere is a wonderful inclusion in baked goods. For example, add a splash to a pie or tart filling. Also add a tablespoon to cookies, cakes, or buttercream for an extra spike of flavor.
