Keeping it Cordial


The cordials category used to be defined by an after-dinner snifter of Cognac or a glass of Kahlua on the rocks. And it’s true that classic styles and brands of liqueurs remain popular with many guests: According to the Beverage Information Group, Cheers’ parent company, Jagermeister is the leading brand in liqueurs and cordials, followed by DeKuyper, Baileys, Southern Comfort and Kahlua.
