Using Cointreau
Cointreau is essential to many of the most popular mixed drinks, including the Cosmopolitan and Sidecar. It’s a French liqueur that hails as far back as 1849.
Cointreau brings depth to mixed drinks. It pairs well with agave and citrus, bringing out texture and fresh flavor. The distillation process includes orange peels that enhance the aroma and balanced flavor. The result is a liqueur with 40% ABV and the strength to function as the cocktail’s base, with other liquors being the additive that changes the drink.
