Cointreau Orange Liqueur

If you’re hunting for that iconic orange liqueur bottle behind every great cocktail bar, this is the one. Cointreau is the original French triple sec — crystal clear, beautifully balanced and bottled at a confident 40% ABV (80 proof). It’s the benchmark that every other orange liqueur is measured against, and a single taste of its bright, true-to-fruit citrus tells you why.

The flavour comes from a proprietary blend of sweet and bitter orange peels, macerated and distilled with nothing more than water, sugar and alcohol — four ingredients, no shortcuts. The result is pure, zesty orange without the cloying syrup of lesser triple secs: fragrant peel up front, a whisper of sweetness, and a clean, gently bitter finish. Because it’s never barrel-aged, it stays brilliantly clear and lets that citrus sing.

This is the secret to a proper Margarita and the backbone of a Cosmopolitan, Sidecar and White Lady — yet it’s just as lovely poured neat over ice or splashed into a glass of sparkling wine. One bottle in the cabinet quietly lifts everything you mix.
