Is This Similar to De Kuyper Butterscotch Schnapps?

What Type of Alcohol Should I Add?
For the cleanest result, use a good-quality vodka or filtered neutral spirit.
A clean spirit base allows the brown sugar, caramel, butter and vanilla flavours to remain prominent.
What Will the Finished Alcohol Percentage Be?
When prepared with 750ml of 40% ABV vodka or neutral spirit, the finished 1.125-litre liqueur will be approximately 26.7% ABV.
The final alcohol percentage will vary if a spirit with a different starting strength is used.
