This is a term from Roman Catholicism. Liturgy is a general term that means about the same as 'rite'. The 7 sacraments are the special rites in Roman Catholicism that affect the soul in a special way. They are Baptism, Communion, Reconciliation, Confirmation, Marriage, Last Rites, Ordination. The most common rite is the Mass, during which the faithful can receive Communion if they wish.

Catholic Answer

Short answer - the Mass, or the Eucharist. Liturgy just refers to the public work of the Church, and the Eucharist refers to the Mass. Every Mass is a public work, even if it is said by some monk all alone in the crypt with no servers.

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church, Glossary:

Eucharist: The ritual, sacramental action of Thanksgiving to God which constitutes the principal Christian liturgical celebration of and communion in the paschal mystery of Christ. The liturgical action called the Eucharist is also traditionally known as the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. It is one of the seven sacrament of the Church; the Holy Eucharist completes Christian initiation (1322 ff.). The Sunday celebration of the Eucharist is at the heart of the church's life (2177).

Liturgy: In its original meaning, a "public work" or service done in the name of or on behalf of the people. Through the liturgy Christ our High Priest continues the work of our redemption through the Church's celebration of the Pascahl Mystery by which he accomplished our salvation. (1067-1069)
