Strongest Liqueur Drinks

162 liqueur drinks tracked, averaging 10.4g carbs and 108 calories per serving. Liqueurs are built on added sugar syrup, so per-ounce carbs run well above beer or wine - the category's small 1.5oz standard serving is what keeps a single pour in check, not a lighter recipe. Sorted by ABV (highest first), then score.

How To Use This Ranking

Use ABV as the first filter

This page is sorted to surface the strongest liqueur choices first. Start with the top ten, then compare score and calories.

Check serving size before you order

The current shortlist reaches a ceiling of 18.0% ABV, so confirm the pour size before treating a high-proof pick like a standard serving.

Cross-reference carbs separately

Strength and carbs move independently, so a high-ABV pick is not automatically low-carb. This shortlist still averages 9.4g carbs per 1.5 oz serving.
