I’m making some Hazelnut liqueur; hazelnuts, vodka, cognac, and sugar. When researching time and temp for roasting the hazelnuts, I read of their health benefits. They have Omega-3 fatty acids, tryptophan, antioxidants, plus nutrients including magnesium and potassium. 
 

Will these be in the finished product? I’m not suggesting that booze will be a health product. I just wonder if the health benefits will disappear or remain. I didn’t know anything about the benefits of hazelnuts before starting this project. I’m making two liqueurs at the same time. The second is chocolate. They will be mixed together for a Nutella liqueur. I hope it works out.

there might be higher traces in lower alcohol drinks. The more alcohol thats in it, the less of the benefits will remain. we use alcohol to strip paint, so its does the same to the nutrients. If it was a beer or similar some of them should remain but once you get to around 10% they drop faster than a scotsman chasing a penny

But, wouldn't the nutrients just be transferred from the nuts to the alcohol? 

I wouldn't think the alcohol would destroy the nutrients but I don't really know.
