Cocktail Recipe | Pegu Club

I had the chance to try the new Pierre Ferrand Dry Orange Curacao this week -- and it's fantastic -- if you like making cocktails, go out there and get a bottle when it hits the shelves in March.

It was created to be the opposite of all the Curacaos already on the shelves -- it's not blue, it's not too sweet, it's not cloying. It is: beautiful, elegant, dry and balanced with sweetness, complex. Perfect on it's own over ice or in a cocktail. Try it in a Pegu Club...
