alcohol subsitution list

Ingredients

• amaretto: almond extract. as almond extract has a much stronger flavor, only use about ¼ of the amount of amaretto called for.
• bourbon: a teaspoon or two of non-alcoholic vanilla extract
• brandy: water is a common substitution but, depending on the recipe, cherry syrup (from canned cherries), white grape juice, and apple juice can be used.
• champagne: any sparkling fruit juice will do here, such as apple, grape or cranberry juices. ginger ale also works well
• coffee liqueur: espresso is a great substitution
• cognac: pear, peach, or apricot juice works well
• crème de menthe: to substitute for crème de menthe, spearmint extract is a good choice, or spearmint oil, which should be diluted with a small amount of water.
• peach brandy: use the syrup from canned peaches. make sure peaches are canned in heavy syrup. peach preserves can also be used
• port wine: grape juice,
• red wine: cranberry juice, grape juice, tomato juice, even beef or vegetable broth.
• rum: vanilla extract
• sherry: apple, pineapple, and orange juices
