Dyes

This is so random, but I couldn't help sharing the information!  High-end Curaçaos, like Grand Marnier, are based on cognac (or other aged spirits), gives Curaçao a natural rust-orange color.  However the blue color of Blue Curaçao's is achieved by adding of food colorant, most often E133 Brilliant Blue.  This is not to be confused with Brilliant Blue G.  Like the average person would do this!!

Invictus

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

By:  English poet William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)
