Answers:
Bitters is a type of alcohol made with herb and citrus flavors!. Sometimes called a "digestif", they're found as flavoring agents in cocktails!. Angostura Bitters and Campari are two of the most famous kinds, but there are a lot of different ones!.

A Sour is a mixed drink that has a base liquor (whiskey, bourbon), lemon or lime juice, and a sweetener (triple sec, pineapple juice)!. Popular "Sours" are Whiskey Sour, Daquiri, Margarita!.

There is no drink category of "sweets"!. There are drinks that have the word "Sweet" in them, like a "Sweet Manhattan" (that has DRY vermouth in it!) and a Sweet Martini (that has SWEET vermouth in it!)
