Triple sec is an orange-flavoured liqueur that originated in France. It usually contains 20–40% alcohol by volume. [1] Triple sec is rarely consumed neat, but is used in preparing many mixed drinks such as margaritas, cosmopolitans, sidecars, Long Island iced teas, and mai tais.
Cointreau (UK: / ˈ k w ɒ n t r oʊ, ˈ k w ɑː n-/, US: / k w ɑː n ˈ t r oʊ, k w æ̃ ˈ-/, [1] [2] [3] French:) is a brand of orange-flavoured triple sec liqueur produced in Saint-Barthélemy-d'Anjou, France.

The Margarita and Sidecar (cocktail) are both variants of the Daisy; both use the simplest form of the specification (base spirit, citrus juice, and liqueur) with triple sec as the modifier; the former uses tequila as the base spirit and lime juice, while the latter uses brandy as the base spirit and lemon juice.

The origin of the cocktail is usually credited to Harry MacElhone at Harry's New York Bar in Paris in the 1930s as a derivative of the sidecar. [3] [4] However, competing theories exist that claim the cocktail was created at The Berkeley in approximately 1921, or in French brothels as an apéritif for consumption by the prostitutes.
The sidecar is a cocktail traditionally made with brandy (usually cognac), orange liqueur (Cointreau, Grand Marnier, dry curaçao, or a triple sec), and lemon juice. It became popular in Paris and London in the early 1920s. Common modifications of the original recipe are a sugar rim, added sugar syrup, and an orange twist or lemon twist.
