Grand Marnier

Grand Marnier is an orange flavored liqueur. In addition to being an after-dinner drink it makes a very nice flavoring for a variety of dishes. Use it to flambe mandarin oranges or as an addition to custards such as creme brulee , pots de creme or in a traditional Grand Marnier Souffle.

You can purchase this beverage in most any well-stocked liquor store.  You can purchase less expensive brands but they are not as strongly-flavored.
