Needs cleaning

[edit]

This article needs cleaning up, or is perhaps better deleted. It seems to have a collection of names whose criterion for inclusion is that some bar, somewhere, is thought possibly to have used the name some time. It is best dealt with as a sentence in the article on Irish coffee (which is more or less standard), redirected from "Liqueur coffee". If kept, at least the nonsense should be deleted. The Wikipedia guideline that everything should be sourced is useful here. A starting point would be to delete all entries that don't have a reference. Pol098 (talk) 05:01, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Liqueur coffee is not know in Galicia as carajillo. That is another drink!! It is licor café or licorka/licorca. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.43.120.173 (talk) 12:02, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Liqueur"

[edit]

This is not a synonym for "spirits" - see the Wikipedia article on liqueurs, which makes clear that many of the alcoholic drinks mentioned here are NOT liqueurs. Liqueurs tend to be sweet and syrupy (in most cases artificially sweetened), often with a medium rather than high alcohol content: Drambuie and Southern Comfort are liqueurs, but whisk(e)y is not. The term "liqueur coffee" may be in common use - though I'd never heard of it before - but the article should at least explain that it's a misnomer. I suspect someone got it mixed up with the American English "liquor", which does mean spirits in general (as in "liquor license" and "hard liquor"). These are not just alternative spellings of the same word - for one thing, they're pronounced differently ("LICK-er" and "li-CURE").213.127.210.95 (talk) 15:09, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Rename the page to "Coffee liqueur"

[edit]
  1. Delete https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Coffee_liqueur&redirect=no
  2. Move (or redirect) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liqueur_coffee to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_liqueur

@Bawanio: I'm not convinced and have declined the speedy deletion. There seem to me to be two separate concepts: coffee-flavoured liqueurs like Kahlua, and alcohol-infused coffee drinks like Irish coffee or Rüdesheimer Kaffee. I think it is better to treat them separately, and not to move this article (mostly about coffee with alcohol in it) to the other name (which is mostly about coffee-flavoured alcoholic drinks and redirects to a relevant section). I suggest to open a formal move request if you still wish to move the page, or to consider having separate pages. —Kusma (talk) 21:56, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The "See Also" Section

[edit]

At the bottom of the article there is a "See Also" section and it links to a list of coffee beverages. Should this be removed or is this something that is relevant topic? Should a list of liqueurs be included?
