The consistency of the liqueur can be compared with syrup, although the sweetness of the syrup is far from the liqueur (and this is good)). The percentage of ethyl alcohol in the liquor does not exceed 40 units. This is usually 15 percent. It is believed that the liqueur owes its birth to medieval alchemists who dreamed of finding the recipe for the elixir of life at all costs. It was in those distant times that most liqueurs were formed, which received the names of religious orders.
There are three categories of liqueurs, these are: strong liqueurs, dessert liqueurs and cream liqueurs. Of course, the preparation of liqueurs differs depending on the category. They are also widely used
cocktails with liqueur
. However, very often liquor is consumed as an independent drink. Liqueur can be added to various dishes, including pastries, mousses,
puddings
,
ice cream
,
cake creams
and so on.
As a rule, liqueur is served at the end of lunch along with a cup of coffee or tea.
The most famous brand of liqueur today is Irish cream
Baileys Liqueur
(or Baileys). The composition of this liqueur includes high-quality Irish whiskey and Irish cream. Baileys liqueur is considered, perhaps, the best liqueur. Among other things, Baileys liqueur is by no means the most expensive liqueur.
The second most popular liqueur is also Irish
Sheridan Liquor
(or Sheridan's). Sheridan liqueur is made on the basis of whiskey, it is two-colored. Sheridan liqueur is bottled in special bottles with two compartments. In one part there is a vanilla-cream liqueur, in the second there is a coffee-chocolate liqueur. When bottling, both liqueurs are arranged in layers in a glass.
The third place in the list of popularity of liqueurs is
Malibu liqueur
. However, Malibu liqueur is not so much a liqueur as a rum, which contains natural coconut palm extract.
