What are they and what are they used for? What's the difference anyway?
Cordials and liqueurs are an essential part of every bartender’s repertoire of knowledge. Without these secondary flavoring agents many, if not all popular cocktails could not be prepared. Often the terms are used interchangeably, but there is a marked difference.
Here, we will explain what they are and how these important ingredients are integral to proper beverage service. Interestingly, many of these beverages have a history going back hundreds of years or more, yet no one spends the time to know and understand their value and necessity in constructing a well-balanced cocktail.
This course is aimed at fixing all that.
This course gets technical at times. I have tried to be as detailed as possible.
What will you learn in this course?
With knowledge on the many different types and flavors of cordials and liqueurs, one can be confident in making a selection, recommending for others to enjoy or blend with other ingredients to make wonderful cocktails.
Here we explain, clearly and concisely, all that is needed to fully understand these types of alcohol and how to serve them properly.
For those not in the bar or restaurant field, we will give you a solid understanding to make the best selection of an after-dinner drink or making cocktails at home. We’ll help you make better choices and be able to differentiate options, without having to personally try everything out there.
All individuals wishing to drink alcohol must be of legal age where they reside.
