Product details
Krupnik Advocat is a Polish egg liqueur in the advocaat style, made with egg yolks, spirit and a light touch of vanilla, at 16% ABV in a 50cl bottle. Poles know it simply as Advokat, and it pours thick and pale yellow, much nearer to a pouring custard than to a fruit liqueur. That texture makes this Advokat egg liqueur as useful on the dessert table as in a small glass. It appeals to anyone who grew up with a Snowball at Christmas, and to fans of the homemade ajerkoniak that many Polish families make for the holidays.
What Krupnik Advocat tastes like
- Nose: Vanilla pod, warm custard and a soft lift of spirit.
- Palate: Rich and smooth, with egg yolk, sweet vanilla cream and a nutmeg-like warmth.
- Finish: Soft and rounded, fading slowly on vanilla sugar.
The colour is a pale, creamy yellow, and the liqueur moves slowly in the glass.
How to serve Krupnik Advocat
Serve it chilled, about 40 ml at a time, in a small stemmed glass or over a couple of ice cubes. Advocaat also makes an easy sauce: pour it over waffles, fruit salad or warm doughnuts, or fold it into whipped cream to top a trifle. It suits Christmas and Easter afternoons with coffee and cake, and a slice of poppy-seed makowiec is a natural partner.
What to mix with Krupnik Advocat
Lemonade is the classic partner, and warm milk works well in winter.
- Krupnik Advocat Snowball: build 50 ml Krupnik Advocat and 15 ml lime juice over ice in a highball glass, top up with 100 ml chilled lemonade and stir gently.
- Nutmeg Advocat Warmer: heat 120 ml milk until steaming, take it off the heat, stir in 40 ml Krupnik Advocat and grate nutmeg over the top.
How it compares
Krupnik Advocat Coffee uses the same egg base but adds roasted coffee, so it ends a touch drier and darker in flavour. For a creamy 16% liqueur without egg, Krupnik Salted Caramel is built on cream and caramel and pours amber rather than pale yellow. Of the three, this original Advocat is the most vanilla-led and the closest to homemade custard.
Good to know
Because it is made with egg yolks, keep the bottle refrigerated once opened. The Krupnik Advocat 50cl bottle holds enough for a round of Snowballs at a Christmas party or several dessert sauces. Customers anywhere in the UK can order Krupnik Advocat online from Wodka Company, which dispatches from north London.
Po polsku
Klasyczny Krupnik Advokat to likier jajeczny robiony z żółtek z lekkim dodatkiem wanilii, o mocy 16% i pojemności 0,5 l. Nalewa się gęsto, ma jasnożółty kolor i konsystencję bliższą płynnemu kremowi niż likierowi owocowemu. W smaku dominuje słodka, śmietankowa wanilia z odrobiną gałki muszkatołowej. Warto podać go schłodzonego, po 40 ml w kieliszku, albo polać nim gofry, pączki czy sałatkę owocową. Z sokiem z limonki i lemoniadą tworzy klasyczny long drink Snowball.
