Monin Syrup - Blue Curacao - 70cl Glass

Monin Blue Curacao is a sweet and slightly bitter, vibrant blue colour liqueur originally made from dried orange peel found on Curacao, an island in the Caribbean. It is typically used to impart the blue hue of tropical skies in cocktails.



Origin
An old time cocktail classic, Blue Curaçao is known for its deep blue colour, tart orange flavour and tropical credentials. Flavoured with the dry peel of the green oranges, which are descended from Valencia oranges, from the West Indian Island of Curaçao, this liqueur embodies this tropical island paradise with its beaches and coral reefs. Discovered by accident, the drink was originally marketed by a Spanish family from Curacao in the 19th century.

The amazing deep blue of Monin Blue Curaçao syrup evokes the sea lapping the beautiful Curacao beaches and adds an exotic touch to cocktails and sodas with its aromatic orange peel scent and candy bitter taste.

Colour
Deep blue even when it dilutes.

Tasting notes
Orange skin smell, candy bitter orange taste.
