Which Orange Liqueur cocktail do you love most?

@stephane.foisy.186 Жыл бұрын

Well I don’t really have a favourite. Tend to explore them all from locally made to unique ones made from kumquat. Those you presented are always on the back bar. Though some I tend to think seasonally. Grand Marnier for winter while clearer offerings for summer.

@torttukasa1566 Жыл бұрын

I love them all, but Cointreau is the overall favourite. I like to mix Grand Marnier, Mandarine Napoleon and Cointreau(at ratio; 1:2:3) to make special mix that I use for every cocktail that needs orange liqueurs.

A snifter of Grand Marnier with a scoop of vanilla ice cream is amazing. For cocktails I like Pierre Ferrand.

I’ve heard that Orange Liqueurs were so prized back in the day because Oranges were extremely rare at the time and having a spirit with it was looked as a luxury. My theory is that is why so many classics use Orange Liqueur in them to add prestige to the drink

Liv, I have been enjoying Clements Creole Shrubb lately. But you know me and my tiki! I generally go with Pierre Ferrand with Grand Marn a close second! I do believe Grand Marn has a deeper orange flavor! But I didn’t know Grand Marn made a yellow label! Very good info! Fun episode! Thank you!

But, what about Blue Curacao? Just joking, the ones I've seen are all cheap and nasty. My experience with liqueurs is very limited, but my impression of orange liqueurs is: Grand Marnier to drink on it's own, Dry Curacao to mix with brown spirits or other dark ingredients, Cointreau to mix with clear spirits and light coloured ingredients.

@MasterYourGlass Жыл бұрын

I really like your breakdown there! Thanks for watching and commenting.

Livio, wonderful overview. My go-to is Cointreau for most drinks and Pierre Ferrand for rum/tiki. I have Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur and Mandarine Napoleon Liqueur on my radar screen - I have never tried. Do you make heavy use of either of these alternative orange liqueur.

@TheHomeBartenderwithAnn Жыл бұрын

I have that Napoleon on my radar as well! Apparently it’s very flavorful! I’ll let you know if I get it! 😉

@MasterYourGlass Жыл бұрын

I agree that Cointreau is the safest bet. I love Mandarin Napoleon. It is such a special product. In general I enjoy the flavor of tangerines better than oranges I have never used a Solerno before in a cocktail but I have tasted it and it’s lovely. Cheers!

Thanks for this video. I keep all my wine based bottles cinder nitrogen & refrigerated in their bottles. Should I also keep these cognac based orange liqueurs the same way since I only use them couple of times/ month?

@MasterYourGlass Жыл бұрын

Not necessary in this case. They last forever. I would only make sure to keep them away from direct light. Although the brown bottle ones also have a very good protection from light but still protect from direct light. Cheers

Which do you recommend for Red wine sangria?

@MasterYourGlass Жыл бұрын

Cointreau or triple sec. I like the sangria to be more clean and “crushable” and the liqueurs with a neutral base (rather than cognac) are more pleasant in a sangria to me.

@Leo-sd3jt Жыл бұрын

Curacao has brandy as its base?

@lars2894 9 ай бұрын

What's a good triple sec under $25 that isn't too sweet and on a similar sweetness level as cointreau? I'm looking at Naranja and Citronge but can't figure out exactly how sweet they are.

@MasterYourGlass 9 ай бұрын

I’m honestly not familiar with the flavor of Naranja. If you can find citronge go for it as it is not overly sweet. Otherwise Luxardo Triple Sec is great and not overly-sweet.
