A strong, colorless alcoholic liqueur flavored with caraway seeds, originating from Germany or Scandinavia.
From German 'doppel' meaning double and 'Kümmel', a caraway-flavored liqueur. The 'double' likely refers to its higher alcohol content or double distillation.
The German word 'doppel' appears in 'Doppelgänger' (a ghostly double of a person)—so doppelkummel is literally 'double caraway liqueur,' capturing German precision in naming drinks.
