Chocolate liquor (cocoa liquor) is pure cocoa mass in solid or semi-solid form.[1] Like the cocoa beans (nibs) from which it is produced, it contains both cocoa solids and cocoa butter in roughly equal proportion.
The name liquor is used not in the sense of a distilled, alcoholic substance, but rather the older meaning of the word, meaning 'liquid' or 'fluid'.
1. The key ingredient in chocolate; grinding the beans of the cacao tree produces chocolate liquor, which yields cocoa butter and cocoa powder.
2. The key ingredient in chocolate; grinding the beans of the cacao tree produces chocolate liquid, which yields cocoa butter and cocoa powder.

On the Internet, I found the sentences. Which one is right, 'liquor' or 'liquid'? Are both acceptable?

When HH copies and pastes from another website, he needs to cite the source. Otherwise, it's plagiarism, which is a form of stealing.
Here's the source:

Yes, you can use either word, but in today's world, "liquor" carries the meaning of alcoholic substance. Thus, you should use the word "liquid" in your sentence.
