Using Liqueurs:
In addition to liqueurs being an "after dinner" drink, here are some other ideas
for uses:
-Add to coffee for a "special coffee"
-Pour over ice cream and you can add fruit with it (i.e.
peach liqueur with sliced peaches)
-Use wherever recipe calls for a liqueur (you can create
the flavor and quantity needed)
-Add to whipping cream or whipped topping . . serve over
cakes or pies.
