Composition
Producer published figures · cointreau.com/us/en/what-nutritional-value. Cointreau is taken as the reference bottle: it is the orange liqueur most sour-family recipes name specifically, and the category (triple sec) is otherwise generic. The producer's own page states 40% alc./vol. and, per 1 fl oz serving, 93 kcal and 6.8 g carbohydrate (all sugar), which scales to 314 kcal and 23.0 g sugar per 100 ml. Density has no measured liquid source and is taken from density-classes.json's 'liqueur-sweet' class (1.09 g/ml); nutritionPer100g is the per-100-ml figure divided through that density. A different orange liqueur (a cheaper generic triple sec, or Grand Marnier's cognac base) changes the sugar and the colour but the recipes here assume Cointreau's profile.
