Sweet herbal liqueur

Bottle of sweet herbal liqueur for cocktail recipes

Recipes that call for sweet herbal liqueur are often referring to Bénédictine, a cognac-based liqueur with an herbal, slightly sweet flavor. Less-commonly, recipes may call for for Jägermeister, Becherovka, or another local favorite – we’ll call out the specifics in recipe notes, and let you know appropriate substitutes.

If you happen to be lucky enough to live in an area where your neighborhood monks still make sweetened liqueurs from the herbs and flowers around the monastery, you can (and absolutely should!) try those local variations in any of the recipes listed here.

Also Known As

Get the App

The Cocktail Party app tells you what you can make from the ingredients you have, and makes tailored recommendations about what to buy next. It's the best $3.99 you'll ever spend on your liquor collection.

Terrific Design!

Absolutely love this app. Gives a great visual representation of the ingredients and the user interface is well designed. Been using it to learn how to make cocktails, the descriptions are great about the drinks. As a novice barman, I love that I am learning the origin of the drink and alternative ways to make the drink. Be prepared to have a wide range of alcohol at you disposal! I can make heaps of drinks with the decent home collection I have, but seeing all the recipes what I could make gets me excited! Highly recommended, everyone loves the person who makes excellent drinks!
