Aftershock is a type of liqueur known for its strong, vibrant flavors and high alcohol content, typically around 30% ABV (alcohol by volume). It is available in a variety of flavors, each with a distinct color and taste, such as cinnamon (red), citrus (blue), and black licorice (black). The liqueur is particularly popular among younger drinkers due to its intense sweetness and striking appearance.

When used in cocktails, Aftershock adds a bold and often intense flavor profile that can dominate the drink. It's commonly used in shooters or layered shots where its vibrant color and strong taste can stand out. For example, the "Aftershock Blue" flavor can be mixed with other ingredients to create visually stunning and flavorful cocktails. Due to its high sugar content, Aftershock is best enjoyed in moderation and often paired with other mixers to balance its potent taste.
