Why is Grand Marnier listed in the "base spirit" section?[edit]

The IBA says this cocktail is made with amaretto (an almond liqueur, not an orange liqueur like Grand Marnier. Granted, many online recipe sites say to use Grand Marnier to make this cocktail, but it is not the "official" IBA recipe. One site called the variation a French Connection 2 to make it clear it's a variation of the original.

Perhaps if Grand Marnier is going to be mentioned, it should be made clear that it's a variation, rather than confusing readers who might assume it's a brand of amaretto. Dr. Work (talk) 17:15, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
