"Barack (/ˈbɒrɒt͡sk/) is a type of Hungarian brandy (Pálinka) made of (or flavored with) apricots; an apricot brandy.
The word barack is a collective term for both apricot (in Hungarian sárgabarack, lit. "yellow-peach") and peach (in Hungarian őszibarack, lit. "autumn-peach"). Note that the Hungarian word barack is etymologically related to the English word ´peach´ as well as many words meaning the same in many European languages, and ultimately goes back to persikos, the ancient Greek word for ´Persian´." - (en.wikipedia.org 03.08.2021)
