About Liqueur Alchemy

“A hands-on library of small-batch liqueurs, recipes, and flavor craft”

This site is a practical library of original liqueur recipes, infusion timelines, sweetening approaches, and finishing techniques. I document what works, what doesn’t, and why—so you can reproduce results, adjust them to your palate, and keep improving.

Expect: small-batch recipes, ingredient notes, aroma and flavor profiles, pairing ideas, and clear step-by-step methods for infusion, maceration, filtration, and balancing sweetness.

What Liqueur Alchemy is?

Liqueur Alchemy is an independent craft and education project focused on homemade liqueurs, infused spirits, and ingredient-led flavor experiments. Everything you see here is built around one goal: making it easier (and more fun) to create liqueurs with a clear flavor intent—without guesswork.

Expect: small-batch recipes, ingredient notes, aroma and flavor profiles, pairing ideas, and clear step-by-step methods for infusion, maceration, filtration, and balancing sweetness.

About me

I’m Kris—a long-time home liqueur maker, traveler, and foodie. I’ve been crafting liqueurs for years, always chasing that moment when a fruit, spice, or herb “clicks” into something bigger than the sum of its parts.

Liqueur Alchemy is where I put my experiments into a format others can actually use: tested quantities, repeatable steps, and practical notes you’d normally only learn after a few batches.

My philosophy

I build recipes the way I cook: seasonal, local when possible, small-batch, and always ingredient-led. The ingredient tells you what to do—how long to infuse, what spirit base supports it, what sweetener fits, and which supporting notes elevate it.

Every recipe aims for balance: aroma first, then a clean mid-palate, and a finish that stays interesting without turning muddy or overly sweet.

Geographic & cultural inspirations

My flavor palette is international. I pick up ingredients, traditions, and ideas while traveling, then translate them into home-friendly, small-batch methods—always with respect for the original inspiration and the realities of what you can actually make in a kitchen.

You’ll see global fruit profiles, spice-led builds, herbal traditions, and regional pairings re-imagined as practical recipes that still taste grounded and intentional.
