However, the spirit base for Gran Marnier is cognac versus a sweetened neutral spirit [think Vodka and sugar]. Gran Marnier is also a higher proof than both Cointreau and Triple Sec.
If they're buying, then order Gran Marnier. If you're forced to purchase your own drinks, then condsider a dye job for Christmas.
I feel sorry for people Down Under who don't put Gran Marnier in their margaritas. They haven't lived.
aussie is funny when she is drunk. Until the paranoia sets in, then she makes us all uncomfortable.
