Strong alcoholic drink distilled from fermented fruits (8)

I believe the answer is:

schnapps

(Other definitions for schnapps that I've seen before include "Strong alcoholic drink from the Continent" , "Dutch or German spirit" , "Strong spirit drink" , "Various strong spirits drunk in N Europe, consonant heavy" , "Strong drinks, Dutch gin made from potatoes say" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
