Orange curaçao

An orange-peel liqueur used in the Mai Tai. An amber dry curaçao brings a different spirit base and texture from many clear triple secs.

What it tastes like

Orange peel, spice and rounded sweetness.

These make a variation. They change the flavour, and sometimes the strength. Your bar still uses the exact recipe.

Triple sec
Start with the same amount. A practical orange-liqueur variation. Compare strength and sweetness; a clear triple sec usually has a lighter base.
