"The Genuine Curaçao Liqueur" which is the original and only company using the ingredient that makes it a real Curacao, has several colors of Curacao, including BLUE. Guess how they get that color! Now do you want to tell us that the original and only genuine Curacao maker is NOT making real Curacao because they add blue coloring to it? http://www.curacaoliqueur.com/brand Wanna know how much of the rum in your collection has caramel added to it to give it a consistent (and aesthetically pleasing) color? No, you probably don't want to know, because then you'd have to throw it all out because of your anti-artificial color standards. Jen, I expected you to be sharper than this. I'm shocked at his calling this a curaçao because he's using store bought navel oranges. The last time I checked curaçao was made from dried peel of the laraha citrus fruit.
