Etymology

The term 'liquoring' derives from the word 'liquor,' which has its origins in the Latin word 'liquor,' meaning 'to be liquid or fluid.' The modern use of 'liquor' in English to refer specifically to distilled alcoholic drinks began in the 14th century. Over time, the verb form 'to liquor' evolved, particularly in relation to culinary practices and cocktail creation. By the 19th century, 'liquoring' became more commonly associated with mixology, where bartenders began to experiment with combining various liquors, sweeteners, and flavorings to create innovative beverages. This process of 'liquoring' also extended into the realm of cooking, where alcohol is incorporated into dishes to elevate flavors. The continuing popularity of craft cocktails ensures that the practice remains relevant in modern culinary and bar environments.
