What is the difference between cointreau and grande marnier?

Question

ta sorry my google finger is broken ;)

Answer 1

My friend has visited the cointreau factory, it is actually flavoured with oranges, but it is made with ethanol (unaged alcohol) soaked with orange rind instead of brandy.

Answer 2

grand marnier is based on a blend of cognacs and flavoured with oranges ..cointreau isn't

Answer 3

they're two entirely different products that happen to taste like orange.

Answer 4

Cointreau is a French Triple Sec with a light orange flavor, and uses neutral grain spirits.

Grand Marnier is a Liqueur - again flavored with orange rind - but uses brandy as its base.

Hope this helps.
