A liqueur is an alcoholic drink composed of distilled spirits and additional flavorings such as sugar, fruits, herbs, and spices. Often served with or after dessert, they are typically heavily sweetened and un-aged beyond a resting period during production, when necessary, for their flavours to mingle. From fruity and sweet to bitter and spicy, liqueurs can add depth to your cocktails and even be the star of your next drink. Find out what new bottles, recipes and brands to expand your liqueur universe. Technically, liqueurs are liquor because they are distilled spirits. The general difference is that liqueurs are sweetened spirits with various flavors, oils, and extracts added; rum, whiskey, brandy, and other liquors can serve as a base spirit for liqueurs.
In the past, liqueurs were referred to as cordials, and many have a history that stretches back centuries because they were often used medicinally. For example, popular herbal liqueurs—including Benedictine and Chartreuse—were originally created as remedies for various ailments, often by monks who specialized in alchemy. Liqueurs are used in a wide variety of creative and legendary cocktails. They are the ingredients that usually make the drink extra special. Most can also be enjoyed neat, chilled, or on the rocks.
