Blue Curaçao liqueur is a vibrant and flavorful spirit that captures the essence of Curaçao Island. Known for its striking color and citrusy taste, this liqueur is a must-try for anyone visiting the island.
The Origin of Blue Curaçao
Blue Curaçao liqueur is crafted from the dried peels of the Laraha citrus fruit, native to Curaçao, a unique adaptation of the bitter Seville orange. This fruit flourished after the Spanish introduced it in the 16th century. Over time, the local population discovered that the dried peels contained aromatic oils, which led to the creation of this distinctive liqueur. This unique ingredient gives the liqueur its distinctive flavor profile, combining sweet and bitter notes.
