2. Introduction
Alcoholic beverages are divided into two groups, depending on their mode of
preparation: fermented beverages, such as wine and beer, and distilled
beverages, such as whisky and brandy. Liqueurs are basically prepared by
blending juices or extracts of fruits, nuts or other food products.

3. Brief description of Alcoholic Beverages
• Wines are made from a variety of fruits, such as grapes, peaches, plums or apricots. The most common wines
are produced from grapes. When ripe, the grapes are crushed and fermented in large vats to produce wine. It
contains 10 to 22 % of alcohol.
• Beer is also made by the process of fermentation. A liquid mix, called wort, is prepared by combining yeast and
malted cereal, such as corn, rye, wheat or barely. The alcohol so produced is called beer. It contains 4 to 8 % of
alcohol.
• Whisky is made by distilling the fermented juice of cereal grains such as corn, rye or barley.
• Rum is a distilled beverage made from fermented molasses or sugarcane juice and is aged for at least three
years. Caramel is sometimes used for colouring.
• Brandy is distilled from fermented fruit juices. Brandy is usually aged in oak casks. The colour of brandy comes
either from the casks or from caramel that is added.
• Gin is a distilled beverage. It is a combination of alcohol, water and various flavours. Gin does not improve with
age, so it is not stored in wooden casks.
• Liqueurs are made by adding sugar and flavouring such as fruits, herbs or flowers to brandy or to a
combination of alcohol and water. Most liqueurs contain 20-65 per cent alcohol. They are usually consumed in
small quantities after dinner.
