What to buy: I knew this nice liqueur long before I found out about an island called Curacao.

After the Spaniards conquered the island they brought orange trees with them to cultivate. Soon they found out that the climate in Curacao was much too dry: the oranges just stayed green. Somehow they had the great idea to make liqueur from the peel...
The blue colour is artifical of course, but it looks great in cocktails :).

You can visit the distillery and try some samples!

What to pay: about 10 US$/per bottle

Theme: Food and Drink

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
