Anyone tried Navan, the vanilla based product made by Grand Marnier? How do you use it?

you bet

from the bottle label "Navan Natural Vanilla liquor is crafted in France by the house of Grand Marnier using the same aged cognacs and traditional blending process as the world famous orange liqueur."

I picked up a bottle several months ago. Am looking for suggestions for use as a beverage, and as an ingredient in baking.

I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds as though you could use it as a soufflé flavoring, or to flambée crèpes... like its sister, Grand Marnier.

I like GM with one ice cube after dinner. Navan would probably be good that way too. It might also give you ideas for what else to do with it.

LOL, over ice is the only way I have tried it and it is good

I wonder how it would be if refrigerated...no ice to water it down.

UB, I need it watered down, it is very potent....if I take it straight, a teaspoon will do me

Must be quite sweet and therefor lend itself to some watering down from ice cube melt ala Baileys Irish Cream. Bet it would be great in a heavy cream based cocktail sorta like a grasshopper or white Russian type drink?

I have a feeling that would work just fine, Beth.

How about using it in white hot chocolate (with whipped cream on top) or over ice cream?
