Does Liquor Go Bad; if so how long does it take.?

Question

I have alot of different rum, tequilas and vodkas left over from my party but I don't really drink a lot. Just wanted to know how long can you keep liquor before it goes bad.

Answer 1

liquor does not go bad per say

wine, if not sotred properly will turn to vinegar, and beer will turn to dog pizz, but spirits will last a mighty long time

put it this way, in the 60's my dad put away a bottle of crown royal for each of his childrens first born child, and I believe I was the last to receive said bottle, just a few years ago, the stuff is absolutely fabulous

Answer 2

I have a bottle of rum that I use only for making rum balls at Xmastime and it's about 3 years old...it gets stronger every year!

Answer 3

keep vodka and tequila in the freezer (for at least a year). i don't know about rum.

Answer 4

It will not go bad, although if you leave it open the alcohol will evaporate an that will leave a bad tasting watter in the bottle.

Answer 5

I think the longer you let it age, the better it would taste and the stronger it would be. But if it's already been opened, I'd toss it.

Answer 6

Only wines will turn to vinegar.
Just keep the caps tight, and should last until you drink it.

Answer 7

It'll keep just about forever, just keep the lid on the bottle.

Answer 8

High alcohol content stuff will last just about forever if tightly closed.

Answer 9

Several months I would think.

Answer 10

I never let any sit around that long...
