Frequently asked questions
Where does the Angel's Delight get its colour?
The soft pink colour comes from the combination of red grenadine with the white cream.
Can I replace the triple sec?
Yes, any clear orange liqueur such as Cointreau works just as well as triple sec.
Is the Angel's Delight very sweet?
Thanks to grenadine and orange liqueur it is pleasantly sweet, and the cream makes it mild and rounded as well.
