Blue Curaçao

Blue Curaçao is distilled and bottled in Curaçao (and has been since 1896). During the distillation process, dried peels of Laraha oranges are mixed with eight different spices. The resulting liqueur is clear, but blue coloring is added, giving it its distinct look.

You know you have the real thing from the round glass bottle, which has a rough texture resembling a Laraha orange peel.
