A distilled spirit is made by first producing a fermentable liquid. The liquid can be a grain-based preparation (from which we get whiskeys and vodkas), a fruit juice (from which we get brandy) or a sugar solution (if the sugar is from cane we get rum, if it's from agave we get tequila). Yeast is added and the liquid is allowed to ferment so as to produce alcohol. This is then put in a still and heated to the boiling point of alcohol; the alcohol is recovered from the steam. Once you cool it, you have a spirit.
If you then use the spirit to dissolve things, you'll have an elixir. A popular one is "Rock 'n' Rye" which is rock candy dissolved into rye whiskey. Most elixirs, though, are medicines.
