Mandarine Napoleon liqueur is a blend of Mediterranean mandarin distillate, cognac, herbs and spices. Dating back to the early 1800s, the history of this liqueur is as rich as its flavour is distinct.
The drink was developed for Napoleon Bonaparte after he met the chemist Antoine-François de Fourcroy, who was renowned for his extraordinary distilling skills. However, the recipe was later lost...
It was only a few years later, at the end of the 19th century, that the Belgian chemist Louis Schmidt rediscovered the recipe for Napoleon's favourite drink and decided to create a liqueur based on this recipe.
Since then, the recipe has been secretly kept from generation to generation.
You can enjoy Mandarine Napoleon in many ways, but the brand signature drink is a Mandarine Ginger. Here is how you make it:
Mandarine Napoleon – 4cl
Fresh lime juice – 1.5l
Ginger ale – 15cl
1 dash of aromatic bitter (e.g. Angostura)
Fill the glass with ice and garnish with a lime quarter.
