Triple sec is a clear orange liqueur distilled from orange peels, known for its bright aroma and sweet flavor, serving as a popular cocktail base.
It typically has an alcohol content ranging between 20% and 40%, offering a crisp and smooth citrus profile.
Triple sec plays a vital role in cocktails such as the Margarita, Cosmopolitan, and Sidecar.
It adds a lively and fresh orange note that brightens the character of the drink.
In premium cocktails, brands like Cointreau or high-quality triple sec are often preferred.
