I have no idea, but according to chiller, it's a generic name for any triple-brewed citrus liqueur. SO technically Cointreau and Grand Marnier are examples of triple-sec*, but the stuff that you can buy in off-licenses (I think that's where Rachel got her bottle) under the name of triple-sec is a lot less sweet than either of those.
I like the idea of a Bring A Random Booze party, or at least I would like the idea of it if the very thought of alcohol wasn't giving me the boak**.
*which I keep mistyping as 'triple-sex', oh dear. **in general I find it irritating when we Englishes adopt Scottishisms, but 'boak' (or boke?) is such a useful term.
