The
Cointreauversial attitude arose 160 years ago with
the creation of the famous liqueur, Cointreau.
This unique and outstanding liqueur made from
oranges, the star of cocktails such as the
mythical Margarita and the very sophisticated and
cool Cosmopolitan, went on to achieve popularity
in more than 200 countries.

The bartender's tip:
Add a zest of orange peel to the drink…
Cointreau's
characteristics include a certain irreverence, a
spirited attitude, a little "je-ne-sais-quoi", a
something extra thought to be due to its legendary
"French touch": it is a limpid and soft-edged
liqueur which darkens like magic on contact with ice,
which projects a delicate taste that literally explodes in
your mouth and then shows a well-tempered tone. It is a
great classic which has become timeless thanks to its
trademark amber coloured bottle. These differences, these
paradoxes, are the factors which laid the ground for what
is now known as the "be cointreauversial"
attitude.
To drink Cointreau is never an anodyne experience, it is a
momentous decision, one which offers you a touch of that
French character from the first sip of cocktail :
impertinence, fun, elegance, humour, irreverence. An
unconventional and light-hearted attitude, full of charm,
a taste of freedom which is far removed from diktats and
conventions.
The "be cointreauversial" movement is now
thriving in New York, London and Tokyo. Women around the
world have adopted it even without realising that they did
so, simply as a result of coming together with Cointreau.
"To be or not to be cointreauversial, that is
the question" with apologies to William Shakespeare
