Gold Strike is a Dutch cinnamon liqueur containing gold snippets, produced by Lucas Bols.
The company suggests it should be drunk as a shot, with the motto "Shake, Shoot and Strike".
[1] It is a clear liquid that tastes like cinnamon candy.
A common urban legend about Gold Strike is that the gold flakes cut the throat or stomach upon ingestion, allowing the alcohol to directly enter the bloodstream for quicker intoxication.
