Editorial Guidelines
We take our stories, readers and drinking, well, very seriously. All of our articles and recipes are carefully chosen by our editorial team. Liquor.com does not accept payment or any form of kickback for anything we write about. No one can pay to be featured in an article written by Liquor.com. That’s what advertising is for.
Liquor.com occasionally sends out emails featuring products or offerings from our sponsors; when paid for, these emails will always be explicitly labeled as “Partner Tip” or “Sponsored.” Likewise, social media content provided by our sponsors is designated by either “(sponsored)” for Facebook or “(sp)” for Twitter. These sponsored emails and posts are one of the ways we keep the lights on around here. They’re how we keep those regular high-quality editorial stories coming.
We would never sell, loan or share our subscriber list, not for any amount of money. Your information is safe with us.
Diversity & Inclusion
We are committed to helping all people, regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, religion, culture, geography, body type, ability or experience.
We are invested in working with diverse writers, recipe developers, expert sources, illustrators, photographers on-screen talent and more to create, edit and enhance our content—not just on isolated topics of race but across our brands’ coverage.

Artificial Intelligence Policy
At Liquor.com, we aspire to provide the highest quality content produced by humans, for humans. Whether our articles, throughly tested recipes, or panel-tasted bottle reviews, all of our content is researched, written and created by writers and editors who are chosen for their individual expertise and passion for drinks. As such, it is against our guidelines to publish automatically generated content using AI (artificial intelligence) writing tools such as ChatGPT, or to use it for our sourcing.
Comments
Liquor.com has partnered with Disqus to add a comment section to our recipes. Through comments, Liquor.com is looking to foster a safe place for readers to share feedback, tips and thoughts about recipes they have read. Comments are moderated. Our comment guidelines are simple: If a comment is respectful and relevant, it will be published. If a comment is disrespectful, not relevant to the article, from an untrustworthy source or spammy, it will not be published.
Product Reviews
Our product reviews are independent and based on research and product testing. If you visit links within our content, we may receive commissions from your purchases, but we never receive any compensation or consideration for the content of our recommendations.
