I see what others are saying about Seniors tasting a bit "thin" (it's as good a word as any), but the actual aroma of the orange oil from the rinds of the fruit are what save it. It's so clean. I don't really know how else to put it. Other than that I actually found that Grand Marnier made for a better mai tai than Cointreau, but again, everyone has their own preferences. :wink:
