liquor
Distilled alcoholic beverage
Liquor is alcoholic drink, especially distilled spirits like whiskey, vodka, or rum—as distinct from beer or wine.
A liquor store sells such beverages.
In cooking and technical contexts, liquor refers to any liquid in which something has been cooked or dissolved: pot liquor, the liquor from steamed mussels.
To liquor up is to get drunk or get someone drunk.
