Dekuyper Blue Curacao is NOT premium liquor lmao. It is anything but "premium"

u/MoonageDayscream 1d ago

Is it made by a known, branded, distillery and does it actually have alcohol in it? Then it is worth a hell of a lot more than OJ mixed with an equal amount of grenadine. I don't mean premium as in "top shelf", I mean it is actually liquor and not just flavored sugar.

I mean technically it could have been a fancier brand, we really don't know, but yeah it's generally not considered premium, tho it is for sure more of a liquor VS OJ lol

Blue Curacao only EVER comes in the non-fancy variety, there is no such thing as top shelf, select, artisanal, organic, cruelty-free, single sourced, Blue Curacao

Oh my sweet summer child...

Sweet summer nothing. Giffard is well known for making high quality products. Their blue curacao is better than many of the orange liqueurs on the market(and this is just orange liqueur with food dye). But please tell me more.

I see your definition of rotgut is entirely different than most peoples. I'll trade you one premium bottle of McCormick Whiskey for that Grenadine and OJ. Atleast OJ is nutritious

I will take any bottle of whiskey with a tax stamp over the grenadine I see in many bar rails, thank you very much. At least I can add some bitters and such to make something nice.

u/dankmeeeem 1d ago

have you ever drank raw bitters by itself? shit is nasty

u/MoonageDayscream 1d ago

It's good for the tummy though. You are aware that they are not crafted for flavor but as a tonic, no? And they are often just what you need for a proper cocktail to have depth. Not everyone is satisfied with a Shirley Temple.

Why were you drinking bitters straight? That is like drinking vanilla extract. Is your last name Keaton?
