Schäfer Heinrich Schafsmilch
German Cream Liqueur with Vanilla-Caramel Character
“Schafsmilch” by Schäfer Heinrich is a novelty-style German cream liqueur inspired by the TV personality Schäfer Heinrich. Despite the name, it does not contain sheep’s milk—instead it is a sweet, creamy spirit drink typically based on dairy cream, sugar, and flavored with vanilla and caramel notes. It is primarily known as a fun, themed party liqueur rather than a traditional agricultural or dairy product.
