Bottles can differ greatly, and they all have names like triple sec or curaçao. What do they mean? What are the differences? Can you sub one out for the other? Not to worry, we'll cover it all!

I once worked a wedding and a specialty drink called for blue curacao. We checked our storage room but didn't have any. Our head bartender went to our chef and asked if he had blue food coloring. He did and he added some drops in a bottle of triple sec. Problem solved.

@egosumhomovespertilionem2022
@egosumhomovespertilionem2022 9 дней назад
Sadly, that is exactly the formula for most blue curacaos that are easy to find and inexpensive. There are authentic blue curacao liqueurs available, but they are usually $30 or more for a 750 ml bottle when purchased at retail (some substantially more), and can be hard to find. Most drinks that require blue curacao aren't particularly good, either, e.g., Blue Hawaii; Adios, Mother F***er; etc. In my experience, when a bar manager buys a bottle of curacao for his bar, that same bottle is rarely used and tends to live on the back bar forever, together with the Galliano and Drambuie.
@tomcarl8021
@tomcarl8021 9 дней назад
@@egosumhomovespertilionem2022 You're right, and it explains why we didn't have blue curacao. We didn't even know we ran out of it because it's so rarely used. Though, funnily enough, since I wrote that comment, I've noticed we have been using it more, and we always have it in stock (cheap stuff). People like the novelty of a blue drink.

Grand Marnier is delicious at $40/btl. DeKuyper's triple sec is plain and distinctly unorangy at $10/btl. But Fun Fact: you can simply add the orange zestof a fresh orange (as strips) into the bottle and turn a cheap triple sec into a bright, citrusy, highly flavored orange liqueur. If that is not "complex" enough for you, add a few crushed cardomom pods and some vanilla. Want even more, add some ginger. The longer it sits the better it gets.

I tend to keep both a Triple Sec and Grand Marnier on hand, as I use both in cocktails. I haven't tried sipping them as liqueurs, but will have to do that. Also, Grand Marnier in a 1:2 mix with a good Rye and several dashes of orange bitters makes a great Old Fashioned variant.

Whenever I make margs with the PF curaçao it tends to taste stronger and a little more harsh. When I make it with cointreau the margarita keeps that light and refreshing taste. I didn’t expect the difference to be much between both bottles but im glad this informative video came out. It makes sense why the curaçao added a deeper and richer flavor.
@iainjames03

Fun fact - when mixed drinks first started incorporating orange liqueur (around the mid- to late-1800s), the signature style of drink was The Daisy: spirit, citrus juice and orange liqueur with optional sugar. Cut to Prohibition time when drinkers and bartenders would slip outside of the US to get their fix, south of the border they'd likely use tequila as their spirit of choice. And what is the Spanish for Daisy? Margarita.

Curacao is really easy to make, and if you make it yourself, you're also able to tweak the flavor in fun ways. In my favorite version so far, I jazzed up the oranginess with a bit of dried lime peel and swapped in demerara syrup for depth.

I found your channel probably during COVID and have enjoyed watching your episodes with my wife. Anders, you do a great job in making them informative and personable, which is a balance few people achieve. This video answered a lot of questions I didn’t know I had! I grew up with the Grand Marnier, but after doing a production of Les Miserables where the prop bottle I had to use was of Mandarine Napoleon, I was always interested in trying it. Finally I found one on the shelf and I bought it. I love that one for sipping and for some more orange based old fashioned drinks. Plus the bottle is quite interesting and gets a lot of our guests attention. Keep it up, Anders.

Very well explained! The texture, flavor and color vary so much in the category, it's hard to choose without having a reference. Now I'm gonna look for a Marie Brizard Curaçao and the Luxardo triple sec! I have a bottle of Tangerine liquor made with cachaça, by the description it's similar to a triple sec, I love use in cocktails that ask for orange liquor. It gives a special flavor with the same presentation.

Thanks Anders! I love a well-made margarita; I opt for making the super juice to keep in my fridge longest (I used to go through limes a lot, goes in half of mexican food 😅) and a friend convinced me to reach for Dry Curaçao after a taste test. I grew out of sweeter drinks but when I started I was adding 1/4 oz. simple to the margarita recipe because I felt it lacked that richness.

You know what? I'm not sure I've ever drunk straight cointreau (aside from a brief sip to get an idea of the flavour profile). I've had a bottle for some time now, but personally I always seem to gravitate towards PF Curaçao. The one thing I used cointreau in was margaritas (with a little agave syrup, as I found it overly dry otherwise), but more recently I've been preferring a Tommy's style margarita with a small dash of orange bitters.
@jbmann4796
@jbmann4796 Год назад
Margaritas are one of the few sweet cocktails I like. I was using DeKuyper Triple Sec when an older brother recommended Cointreau; I never used DeKuyper again. I then tried the Pierre Ferrand Curaçao and that is my go to for Margaritas, with Cointreau a very close second. I also keep a bottle of Grand Marnier (mostly for guests). Have never found the Luxardo or Marie Brizard items.

Another good orange liqueur is the Clement Creole Shrubb. gives that Agricole rum pop with the orange flavors. I use mix of Creole shrubs and Grand Marnier with a bit of dry curaçao to make a house orange liqueur that I use in my Mai Tai and other original recipes I have.

My favorite liqueur behind my home bar. Clement creole shrub just adds all those baking spices you love. My mai tais riffs and sidecar riffs are brilliant. An Outrigger with a blended slightly aged rum, fresh lemon and clement creole blows away a typical sidecar.

Thanks Anders and Az! Another banger! It's funny because I started with the ones that I knew the best, Grand Marnier and Cointreau. But branched out when making margaritas for a large group and I didn't think the more expensive were worth mixing in a cocktail like that where I felt a lot of the flavors were lost. I now have a whole range of them and love playing around with them. The latest I've enjoyed have been a with whisky and rich amaro (such as Nardini Bassano), I'll add 1/4/oz of curaçao. It gives a lovely chocolate orange flavor.

You have to look at Elemental Mixology’s insane deep dive on curaçao. The thing is that there used to be many levels of sweetness in curaçao, and also that the oranges they used were in fact cultivated oranges gone feral. So when people started making liqueurs, they would combine sweet cultivated and sweet-cultivated-gone-feral-but-not-bitter oranges and even sometimes actually bitter oranges. Hence the Triple in triple sec. But of course it depends how you define an orange and how you define sweet. Ferrand’s so-called Dry Curaçao is actually closer to historically sweet curaçao liqueurs…

I tend to stick with Cointreau and GM, myself. Unless I’m making a big batch of bulk margaritas, then DeKuyper TS works well. But I have two other Orange Liquors that I also enjoy. Citronge and Mandarine Napoleon. Citronge is a good swap for Cointreau in a margarita. Mandarine Napoleon is cognac based and is made with Tangerine. It will add a distinct twist to drinks normally made with curacao or Grand Marnier.

I recently added a bottle of Solerno blood orange liquor. It's in the triple sec style, but a more tart orange flavor. Also it's bottle is pretty, because everyone knows that a fancy bottle makes something taste better.

Hi Anders!! Terrific video! They are always such a pleasure to watch. So enjoyable! I always have bottles of Grande Marnier, Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao and Cointreau on our bar!! My husband and I enjoy all of these along with family and friends when they are over visiting!! I have never seen Marie Brizard Curacao locally. I will check to see if I can find it!! I hope you have a lovely weekend!! Cheers!! 🙂

Just a few days ago I was wondering what is the simple explanation for when to use Cointreau or curacao or triple sec or Grand Marnier, and this video delivers on that beautifully!

Great video!! Tiki aside, I find that most of the cocktails I enjoy call for triple sec. And of those, so many call for Cointreau that that would be my bottle of choice if I were only getting one.
