Chocolate liqueur taste amusesA chocolate liqueur is a sort of liqueurs. Liqueur is a sweet alcoholic beverage, often flavored with fruits, herbs, spices, flowers, seeds, roots, plants, barks, and sometimes cream. The word liqueur comes from the latin word liquifacere which means "to dissolve." This refers to the dissolving of the flavorings used to make the liqueur. Liqueurs are not usually aged for long periods of time, but may have resting periods during their production to allow the flavors to marry.
A lot of people use the words cordial and liqueur interchangeably. Though they both describe liquors made by redistilling spirits with aromatic flavorings and are usually highly sweetened, there are some differences. While liqueurs are usually flavored with the ingredients above, cordials are generally prepared with fruit pulp or juices. Nearly all liqueurs are quite sweet, with a highly concentrated, dessert-like flavor.
Some liqueurs are prepared by infusing certain woods, fruits, or flowers, in either water or alcohol, and adding sugar, etc. Others are distilled from aromatic or flavoring agents. The distinction between liqueur and liquor is not simple, especially since many liquors are available in a flavoured form today. Flavoured liquors, however, are not prepared by infusion. Alcohol content is not a distinctive feature. At 15 to 30%, most liqueurs have a lower alcohol content than liquor, but some liqueurs have an alcohol content as high as 55% (absinthe, for example, can be as high as 85%). Dessert wine, on the other hand, may taste like a liqueur, but contains no additional flavouring.
Liqueurs may be drunk neat, often during or after dessert, or may be used in cocktails or cooking. There are many categories of liqueurs including: fruit liqueur, cream liqueur, coffee liqueur, chocolate liqueur, schnapps liqueur, brandy liqueur, anise liqueur, nut flavored liqueur, and herbal liqueur.
