List of liqueurs

 
Wikipedia: List of liqueurs
A selection of liqueur bottles

Liqueurs are high-alcohol, high-sugar beverages with added flavorings usually derived from herbs, fruits, or nuts.

Liqueurs are distinct from flavored liquors, fruit brandy, and eau de vie, which contain no sugar.

Most liqueurs range between 15% and 55% alcohol by volume.
