Liquor is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented grains, fruits, or vegetables. It typically contains a higher alcohol content than beer or wine, usually ranging from 20% to 50% alcohol by volume (ABV). Common types of liquor include vodka, whiskey, rum, and gin, each with unique flavors and production methods. Liquor is often enjoyed in various ways, such as in cocktails, on the rocks, or neat. It plays a significant role in social gatherings and celebrations. Responsible consumption is important, as excessive drinking can lead to health issues and impaired judgment.
