History
Butterscotch schnapps emerged in the American market in the 1980s during the flavored schnapps boom. DeKuyper's Buttershots became the category leader. Unlike traditional German schnapps (which are dry fruit brandies), American schnapps are sweet, flavored liqueurs designed for mixed drinks and shots.
