Christmas Cocktails with Cointreau

Christmas Cocktails with Cointreau

To celebrate Christmas, Cointreau have created a chic bottle pourer using their signature toucan to complement your bottle of Cointreau just in time for the festive season. The Christmas pack comes in a tropical box and includes a bottle of Cointreau as well as the brass pourer – ideal for the Margarita lover in your life.

Packaged in a unique deep amber bottle, Cointreau is an aromatic feat and owes this impact to a complex blend of orange peel essences. Zesty, fresh, floral and sweet with an instant freshness, lingering on the palate, it is a harmonious blend of nuanced notes yet remains intensely orange.

In cocktails, Cointreau serves as a flavour amplifier, helping reveal the other ingredients while bringing balance, depth, and freshness to the mix. Create the perfect Cointreau Margarita for the summer holiday season with these fun summer cocktail recipes…
