Does liquor ever expire?!
Answers:
No!. alcohol is self-fermenting and a self-preserver!. ever heard of newly discovered wine that was 100 years old!? as long as the bottle and cork are intact and sealed, the contents should be perfect!.
HOWEVER, that being said there are cream based liquors that will expire!. Irish whiskey creams, rum creams and tequila creams are the most common!. These should be kept cold and the shelf life is only about three to six months!.
Remember the chemical composition of anything can be changed when heat is applied, so any liquor that appears different than it normally does should be treated with care!. Its better to be safe than sorry!.

Drinks with a very high alcohol content can't go "bad" because microorganisms cannot survive in that environment!.
Alcohol can evaporate from the bottle if it is not tightly closed!.
Which is always a shame!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
