Cointreau Breeze Recipe is not a new cocktail, but it is my favorite. It’s called the Cointreau Breeze.
I’m posting a recipe for about six to eight people because that’s how many glasses of this delicious, refreshing drink you get from 6 oz of Cointreau liqueur and 4 oz fresh lime juice.
If you’re serving more than 8 guests, add another 2-3 oz each of lime and Triple Sec liqueurs for each additional person.

How to make Cointreau Breeze Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 oz Triple Sec
- 2 oz Cointreau liqueur
- 2 oz fresh lime juice (about 1-1/3 tbsp)
- Ice
- 1 Lime wedge
Directions:
1. Mix ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Strain into glasses filled with ice. Garnish each glass with a lime wedge. This drink is best served in a tall, thin glass, so the rim isn’t spilling over with sweet, delicious Cointreau juice.
2. If you want to make more drinks, use a giant glass, such as a collins glass filled with ice.
3. Enjoy!

The health benefits of Cointreau Breeze Recipe
1. The alcohol in this cocktail is not bad for you. The calories are a small fraction of the calories in alcohol-free drinks since there is only a little bit of Cointreau and Triple Sec in the glass. If dieting, skip the limes, which contain about 3 grams of sugar per lime wedge.
2. 4 kcal per serving for cocktails is not bad for any healthy mix drink. It’s better than many diet sodas and fruit-flavored cocktails with no alcohol…
3. Cointreau is a liqueur made from sweet, ripe oranges (Citrus aurantium). It takes about 10 to 15 whole oranges to make one 25 oz bottle of Cointreau. This means there is no alcohol, no artificial ingredients, and nothing unhealthy.
4. Cointreau is flavored with the natural citrus peel so that it won’t give you the jitters like too much caffeine can.
5. It’s not too sweet like the classic Cointreau Cocktail. When you mix diet Cointreau with fresh lime juice, it’s ideal for integrating into diet drinks like lemonade and iced tea.
6. Cointreau Breeze Recipe has no calories, fat, or sugar–but it would be an excellent substitute for carbonated drinks on a low-sugar diet.
With just 2 grams of sugar per serving, this is not as sweet as many fruit-flavored diet sodas or fruit-flavored cocktails with alcohol are.
Who Can Eat This Delicious Recipe?
Cointreau Breeze Recipe is an ideal drink for many people. It’s low in calories and alcohol and flavored with natural citrus peel.
I recommend Cointreau Breeze for people who are on a diet or watch their weight and for anyone who likes a tea flavor in their drinks. Because it’s a liqueur, it adds a tasty orange flavor without adding too much sweetness to the glass.
How to choose the right ingredients?
The Cointreau Breeze recipe uses fresh lime juice, fresh-squeezed orange juice, and Triple Sec. These ingredients are all naturally fat-free, sugar-free, and low in calories.
If you like the taste of alcohol in your drinks but don’t want the calories or sugar, this is an excellent drink for you.
Can I Freeze It??
Yes, this recipe can be frozen and stored for 6 months. Make sure you put the drink into a covered container and put it in the freezer.
When you’re ready to use it, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight, or no more than 3 hours before you use it (so that it’s cold but not frozen).
Use as much of the frozen Cointreau Breeze recipe as you need for your guests since most of its flavor is lost when frozen.
Where Can I Buy It?
You can buy Cointreau online or in the liquor store. I use Cointreau and Triple Sec for this drink recipe, but you can use any liqueur or sweet syrup that you prefer to make a drink.
Is it Good for Digestion?
Yes. For over a century, Cointreau has been safe to drink and enjoyed as an after-dinner digestive aid. It’s made from fermented and distilled fresh sweet oranges (Citrus aurantium).
Its recipe hadn’t changed since its beginning when it was invented to take on bitter-tasting quinine in 1932.
Is it good for Appetite?
Yes, Cointreau Breeze Recipe can stimulate your Appetite if you crave sweet drinks. The natural sugar in it will increase your blood sugar levels, which may also increase your desire for other foods.
Conclusion
Cointreau Breeze Recipe is a delicious, sweet, and easy recipe. It’s easy to make, you don’t have to prepare special equipment, and you don’t have to plan to make it. The ingredients are all-natural, so there’s nothing artificial or unhealthy about it.
Cointreau Breeze Recipe is a real treat for the taste buds. It works well as a low-calorie diet drink in some cases, and its orange flavor is excellent for such drinks as lemonade or iced tea.
