Urban Dictionary’s got this one SFW def of Goldschläger as:

(n) - Cinnamon schnapps liqueur (40 percent) with gold flakes. Rapid consumption results in inebriation and eventual disorientation which eventually leads to unconsciousness.

Upon consciousness, causes one to realize they are in someone else’s bed in A/B with their pants 1/2 off. At this point, friends help one up and one proceeds with puking.

Then there is more disorientation, eventually leading to another state of unconsciousness. Later the next morning, it is realized that stolen furniture polish was thrown out one’s window.

What’s so great about Goldschläger? The cinnamon burn? The flakey REAL GOLD bits? The perky/staccato Swedish umlauts in the name? Yes. All those things.

Got some Christmas shwag ‘schäg in your stocking and don’t know how to chug this business? TSJ says: Make like a forty-niner who’s struck it rich! Yukon your liquor straight! Here’s a drink to make your fillings tingle.
