Southern Comfort is an American fruit-flavored liqueur with fruit and spice accents. The whiskey-based beverage still exists in the sweeter side of the flavor spectrum. It was first produced all the way back in 1874 in New Orleans by bartender Martin Wilkes Heron, combining classic whiskey notes with the fruity freshness of peaches.
Since its birth in the late 1800s, Southern Comfort has been used in countless cocktail and mixed drink recipes - it pairs particularly well with cola and a good slice of lime.
