Alcohol, as in Vodka, Gin, Rum, Rye, Scotch etc.

Both liquors and liqueurs contain alcohol, but the terms are not interchangable.

Liqueurs are sweetened spirits with various flavors, oils, and extracts. Cream liqueurs have cream added, while créme liqueurs are much sweeter, likened to a potent syrup.

Liquor is an alcoholic beverage made of grains or other plants which is fermented into a potent drink. Although sugar is generally used in the fermentation process, the resulting liquor is not sugary sweet. Liquors are nowadays available in flavored forms, but they are not sweet to the palate. The flavor is usually added after distilling through a steeping process, much like vinegars and oils are infused.
