Cointreau is an iconic French orange liqueur with crystal clear color, exceptional citrus aroma, and an instantly fresh taste that lingers. Crafted from a precise blend of sweet and bitter orange peels and meticulous distillation processes, this full-strength spirit is perfectly balanced and smooth. Throughout its more than 170 years of history, Cointreau has inspired the imagination of mixologists, bartenders, chefs, and home hosts around the world. Cointreau orange triple sec liqueur is a bar essential: at the heart of more than 500 of the world’s most celebrated cocktails including The Original Margarita, The Cosmopolitan, and The Sidecar.

APPEARANCE - Cointreau is no stranger to the unexpected and its deep amber bottle conceals a visual surprise: a perfectly transparent liqueur. When mixed, the crystalline liqueur becomes opalescent, a physical testament to the high concentration of orange essence.

AROMA - Cointreau is an aromatic feat and owes this impact to a complex blend of orange peel essences. Zesty, fresh, floral, sweet… With a spectrum of more than 40 olfactive notes, Cointreau is a captivating ode to orange on its own and an enhancer of other flavors when mixed.

TASTE - Cointreau’s flavor profile is a symphony of unexpected dualities: It has an instant freshness yet lingers on the palate, is a harmonious blend of nuanced notes yet remains intensely orange. In cocktails, Cointreau serves as a flavor amplifier, helping reveal the other ingredients while bringing balance, depth, and freshness to the mix.
