Liqueur entries currently indexed
Liqueurs and cordials are sugar-forward by design, so even a small pour can carry a heavy carb load.
Treat liqueurs as accents rather than base spirits, compare carbs per ounce, and lean on the higher-score, drier options.
Top examples right now: Absente Absinthe, Fernet-Branca, Pernod Absinthe
