Liquorix is a distro kernel replacement built using the best configuration and kernel sources for desktop, multimedia, and gaming workloads.

Step 1. Installation.

Open a Terminal window and run the following in sequence.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damentz/liquorix && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-image-liquorix-amd64 linux-headers-liquorix-amd64

Reboot to apply.

Step 2. Switch Between Linux Kernels.

Install GRUB Customizer using your package manager.

Once installed, launch, navigate to General settings / advanced settings and change GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE from HIDDEN to 0, and set GRUB_TIMEOUT to 5 or higher.

Save the settings.

Step 3. Remove Liquorix Kernel.
Boot into any kernel apart from Liquorix.

Install Synaptic Package Manager using your package manager and launch.

Search for Liquorix, mark both the image and header for removal and once the process is complete then the Liquorix kernel is removed.
