  At the risk of sounding dumb, what is Kirsch?

  Hi,

Here is the definition of Kirsch:

kirsch; kirschwasser

Definition: [KEERSH; KEERSH-vah-ser] From the German kirsch ("cherry") and wasser ("water"), this clear brandy is distilled from cherry juice and pits. In cookery, it's most prominently known as a flavorful addition to fondue and cherries jubilee.
