noun
apricot wine; Shinluchu
A specific product name for an apricot-based alcoholic beverage. Often encountered in restaurant menus or liquor stores.
中華料理店で杏露酒を注文した。

The name is a product coinage; the exact derivation is uncertain, but the kanji 杏 (apricot), 露 (dew), and 酒 (alcohol) suggest a poetic reference to apricot wine.
