Review:

Bittersweet, with the richness of Grand Marnier balancing the bitter liqueur and lemon juice. (I'm guilty of rebalancing this cocktail and adding the prosecco.)

History:

Udapted from a recipe created in 2012 by Dutch bartender, Fjalar Goud in honour of King's Day, celebrated across the Netherlands annually on 27th April.
