Cherry Brandy
Although the name is Brandy, Cherry Brandy is not a Brandy since Brandy is produced by distillation of wine, pomace or fruit mash, where as Cherry Brandy is produced by macerating cherries in neutral spirit, Vodka to be specific in it's case, it is not even macerated in any Brandy, so technically it is not a Brandy and it doesn't contain Brandy either, although some brands might add some Brandy but that's not a legal requirement. Cherry Brandy is a liqueur, and thus it is also known as Cherry Brandy Liqueur.
Cherry Brandy Liqueur is usually flavoured using spices such as cinnamon and cloves. One distinctive speciality of distillation of the cherry infused spirit is that the pot still for distillation has to be copper instead of stainless steel, copper helps produce a smoother distillate and most importantly removes the cyanide produced when cherries are distilledCampari
Campari is an apertif, obtained from the infusion of herbs and fruits in alcohol and water. It is a bitters and has a distinctive red colour, which originally was a carmine dye, the crimson dye obtained from crushed cochineal insects, however use of Carmine has been discontinued since 2006. Campari was invented in 1860 by Gaspare Campari in Novara, Italy and is now owned by Gruppo Campari. Campari is bottled at 20.5% to 28% ABV depending on the country it is sold in. The flavour of Campari is bitter, spicy and sweet and is an essential ingredient in several classic cocktails like Negroni, the Garibaldi and the Americano.
Vodka
Vodka is an European clear distilled alcoholic drink that has been one of the most popular drinks across the world .
You'll find it to be the most popular spirit in drink making because of it's neutral taste and absence of flavour and colour.
Vodka often replaces Gin in many traditional cocktails
Vodka is known to be good for the heart, and if consumed in moderation, can prove to be good for cardiovascular health
Note that these days there are flavoured Vodka available in the market too, and some cocktails do make use of them.
