Shelf Life Tips

  • How long does orange liqueur last? The answer to that question is a matter of quality, not safety, assuming proper storage conditions - when properly stored, a bottle of orange liqueur has an indefinite shelf life, even after it has been opened.
  • To maximize the shelf life of orange liqueur for quality purposes, store in a cool dry area away from direct heat or sunlight; keep tightly closed when not in use.
  • Once a bottle of orange liqueur is opened, the contents may begin to evaporate slowly and some flavor may be lost over time, but the orange liqueur will remain safe to consume if it has been stored properly.
  • How to tell if orange liqueur has gone bad? The shelf life of orange liqueur is indefinite, but if orange liqueur develops an off odor, flavor or appearance, it should be discarded for quality purposes.
