    I've been regularly watching your channel for a few months now, and catching up on years' worth of really great "sips, tips and recipes." I've been following along, adding bottles to my liquor collection and gear. I've been making these recipes at home, and having a hell of a time!
    My wife tends to roll her eyes at me. "More bottles to squeeze into our liquor cabinet? More glassware to squeeze into our cupboards? Where are you going to store that bar mat?"
    Well, yesterday I mixed this Pegu Club for the first time, and served it to her in a new Nick & Nora glass. She quickly went from "Ooh, tart!" to "this is so summery!" to "this is my favorite drink of all time!" Over the next couple of hours, she had me make her two more.
    Thanks to both of you, Anders and Az, for buying me some more time with my new hobby.

    Great to have found you. I have learned so much and look forward to add certain implements to my drink making arsenal. Did not love the Pegu so I changed the lime to lemon. The curaçao to poire liquor and orange bitters for the angostura. The point is your video inspired me to experiment and that is great fun.

      Triple sec will absolutely work! It tends to be a bit drier than curaçao, so you may have to tweak the ratios to get the balance you want, but it will still work beautifully. Good luck, Rob!

    Just made it with Pierre Ferrand and can tell you it was too thin and the lime overpowered it. And had nothing like the deep color of of the Brizzard. Added a few extra dashes of Ango and it was better. Remade it, subbing Licor 43 for the Curaçao and liked it much better. I bet .25 oz of rich Demerara would be great.

    Looks like it's a cocktail that is really sensitive in terms of proportions. Made exactly as you suggested, and it appeared to be pretty bitter. Other recipes suggest less lime juice. Maybe the crucial detail about this cocktail is how sweet is Curacao (which brand is used) and amount of Lime juice. Thanks for the video (and the channel) anyway! A real masterpiece most of the time.

I noticed another viewer did a similar add (lime syrup). Can you recommend another cocktail with a similar profile that is on the sweeter side?

  • @AaronGallagher
    @AaronGallagher 2 года назад

    Hey Anders - I’m watching all of your videos from the beginning and I just watched the Sidecar vid and this one. What, for you, helps determine which curaçao you use since you used the Pierre Ferrand for the Sidecar and used the Marie Brizard for the Pegu Club?

    • @AndersErickson
      @AndersErickson  2 года назад +1

      I find the Pegu Club to be a touch drier, so I like using the richer Marie Brizard Curaçao to balance it out. It’s not a huge transformation though - you certainly could interchange the two. Thanks for the question, Aaron!

    • @AaronGallagher
      @AaronGallagher 2 года назад

  • @reede140
    @reede140 3 года назад

    So I see you have the Pierre Ferrand Curacao as well, what prompts the use of Marie Brizards in this particular cocktail? Does the original more call for it, or just a matter of preference?

    • @AndersErickson
      @AndersErickson  3 года назад +1

      Great question! It's just a matter of preference for this specific cocktail. The Marie Brizard is richer, so it really holds up to the acidic lime and the dry gin - especially with the absence of additional sugars or syrups.

    • @AndersErickson
      @AndersErickson  3 года назад +1

      They're both orange liqueurs, but differ from each other. Cointreau is in the triple-sec style, meaning it will be drier than most curaçaos (triple secs use a neutral grain spirit as a base). Curaçaos, on the other hand, use brandy as a base, and tend to be richer in flavor. Both are wonderful modifiers, and in a pinch, can be used interchangeably!

      Because Plymouth is originally an English word, and vermouth is originally French - so the phonetics are different, and sounds have morphed to accommodate the native language of the speaker.
