Considered one of the tastiest and most popular alcoholic beverages, liquor is a drink that contains a significant alcohol content and is made based on the presence of different fruits, herbs, spices or other products, each liquor generally having a single flavor To make them even more interesting and attractive to the palate, liqueurs include a significant amount of sugar that is added artificially and that is added to that which the particular flavor may contain (for example, in the case of some fruits).
Liqueurs are extremely varied in terms of flavor options, as well as their presentations and the mode of production under which they are made. Due to their particular flavor, liqueurs are made to be taken in small quantities, since they are usually drinks that, in addition to having a significant level of alcohol, are heavier and more concentrated in terms of density than others such as whiskey or tequila.
It is estimated that liqueurs have been produced since time immemorial and that in other times there were only flavors taken from herbs and spices. Normally, they were used for medicinal purposes rather than for consumption, although over time, the improvement of production, as well as the discovery of new possibilities in terms of flavor, contributed to the fact that this drink became a true delicacy.
Unlike what happens with other alcoholic beverages, liquor can be easily produced by hand and this is the reason why handcrafted liquors are often even more delicious and special than industrial ones. Regardless of the type of production under which they are made, most liquors can reach between 15 and 55 percent alcohol content, thus becoming some of the strongest alcoholic beverages.
