National Liqueur Day is observed annually on October 16. This day celebrates the myriad classes and flavors of liqueur.
The word liqueur comes from the Latin liquifacere which means to liquefy. A liqueur is an alcoholic beverage made from a distilled spirit flavored with fruit, cream, herbs, spices, flowers or nuts and bottled with added sugar or other sweeteners. Typically considerably sweet, liqueurs are usually not aged long. However, a resting period during their production allows the flavors to marry.
