3. WHAT ARE LIQUEURS?
Liqueurs maybe defined as “sweetened,
flavoured and coloured spirits”
They are also known as “Cordials”, and were
first developed as curative herbal drinks by
alchemists in France and Italy.
Derived from the Latin word Liquefacere
,which means to dissolve or melt, a manner
by which many liqueurs acquire their flavours
from herbs , flowers etc.
The liqueur recipes were guarded with utmost
secrecy.
4. A Liqueur thus, basically consists of a
spirit base such as brandy, whisky, rum,
or a neutral spirit, that has flavourings
added to it, and is sweetened. The
flavoring used include fruits, flowers,
roots, leaves, herbs, spices, and the
suchlike.
5. WHEN DID LIQUEURS GAIN
POPULARITY?
The Liqueurs gained popularity during the
1930’s ,when prohibition was imposed in
America on strong alcoholic brews that
were being made clandestinely. Liqueurs
were used to tone down the fiery nature of
such spirits.
7. HOW ARE LIQUEURS MADE?
There are 3 basic methods used to extract the
flavors for liqueurs:
Infusion:Also known as the Maceration
method, heat is used and the soft fruits are
steeped in the base spirits for 6-9 months in
large oak casks.The spirit extracts aroma,
colour and flavour from the fruit.
Percolation: Used for making Plant liqueurs,
it works on the principle of a coffee
percolator. The filtered product will be rested
in vats to mature.It is then artificially
sweetened with sugar and coloured with
natural vegetable dye.
8. Continuation…….
Distillation: The commonly used
method of distillation is the Pot Still
Method. The flavoring agents were
macerated in brandy upto 48 hours and
afterwards the mash, with a supplement
of brandy, was put in a pot still. Heat is
applied and the resulting flavored
distillate is sweetened and artificially
colored.

liqueur flavored with elderberries and aniseed (along with other
herbs and roots).

a glassful and swallow the drink in one go.
How to serve – If you are going to try the flaming Sambuca
trick, it helps to serve the liqueur in a narrow glass like an old
fashioned sherry schooner, because the flame will take more
easily on a smaller surface.
A chilled glass of Sambuca makes a good accompaniment to
genuine Italian Torta, one of those heavenly sticky cakes of
dried fruits, almonds and lemon zests.

Tia Maria, said to be Jamaica’s contribution to the world of
liqueurs, is a suave, deep brown coffee flavored drink.

variety, blue mountain. In addition to the coffee, the palate is
further deepened with the addition of local spices too.

Maria as a digestif. Otherwise it is one of the few liqueurs to

Tia Maria is brilliant for lacing chocolate desserts and of
course for making a good liqueur coffee – particularly when the
coffee used is Jamaican Blue Mountain.
68. Southern Comfort
The foremost American liqueur is southern comfort, a fruitier
counterpart to the scotch-based liqueurs.
Its origins probably lies in the mixing of bourbon with peach
juice as a traditional cocktails in the Northern states.
Today, the company that owns the brand is the same one that
has the leading Tennessee whiskey brand, Jack Daniels. The
Southern Comfort distillery is located in St. Louis, in the state of
Missouri.
Its ABV is 40 %.
Southern comfort is supposed to be meditatively sipped, like
other fine American whiskeys, but you could try taming its fire
and emphasizing its fruitiness with a mixture of peach nectar. It
makes a good substitute for bourbon poured over the traditional
thanksgiving or Christmas.

peach – and although they are occasionally known by other
names, it is as cherry brandy etc that drinkers know them best.

been invented by the English. Famous cherry liqueur brands
include Cherry Herring, Cherry Rocher, de Kuyper, Garnier
and Bols.
Peach brandy is the one least frequently seen, its most
famous manifestation probably being te one marketed by Bols.
Making.
How to serve – Te best of these brandies make wonderful
digestifs served in small quantities, provided in small quantities
73. Cream Liqueurs
Cream liqueurs are an ever expanding category in the
contemporary market. They all owe something of their
appeal and inspiration to the archetypal brand, Bailey’s Irish
Cream.
Coffee and chocolate flavorings are commonly used, and
indeed some cream liqueurs are made by confectionary
companies, such as Cadbury’s and Terry’s.
In 1990 an Irish drinks company launched a product

tops, one half filled with coffee flavored Irish Whiskey, te
other with thick white cream.
