Ken, If indeed you are going to take the gin plunge, I recommend the Pegu first, of course. If both the Pegu and Corpse Reviver #2 still send you running, try making them with Square One Botanical. Then try them again with real gin.

After a few years of quarreling, I’m steadily warming up to the idea of making nice with gin. This could be the cocktail to do it for me!

I am hoping there will be a movie adaption of entourage at some point, my favourite series by far.

We’ve been playing around with the Domaine de Canton as well. It showed up in our state run stores a couple of months ago. Current favorite – 1 oz rum, 1 oz ginger liqueur, 1 oz lime juice, 1/3 ounce Oregeat, garnish with a maraschino cherry – the Ginger Daiquiri Deluxe. I guess you could soak the cherries in Cointreau instead . Come to think of it, that’s worth trying.

I just read a review by Paul Pacult and he gave canton 5 stars – It’s a great liqueur for many cocktails and it’s fun to play around with the mixing!

All this sounds delicious… I haven’t tried Canton yet but I keep hearing about it. I have to go get myself a bottle and start making some coktails!

The Canton sounds pretty cool. I may have actually seen it here in Ohio as well. I’ll have to check again. Maybe I’ll try a splash in my Mule.

I loove Gin too and I recently tried a new twist on the Strawberry Daiquiri. Instead of Rum and Triple Sec, use your favorite Gin, (have tried it with Bombay but I’m sure the Van Gogh would taste amazing!) and add Canton, which is a new Ginger liqueur with cognac. It really does add a kick to it, and tastes way better than the normal Daiquiri. Cheers!!

Not only do I go through it faster than any other, but it is just about the most expensive booze by volume I buy, with the possible exception of the Glenrothes Single Malt I keep around for drinking with certain good friends.

Unfortunately, like with Porsche, There Is No Substitiute….

“Virtually every cocktail I make seems to end up with Cointreau in it” – I hear that! Aside from perhaps gin it’s the bottle I get through fastest. I swear I should just buy a truck-load and have done with it, it’d save a lot of trips to the off-license…

Thanks, and nice post as always! I think that backing off the Bombay Sapphire into something more mix-friendly likethe Van Gogh, or hell, anything, would perhaps improve your experience. Then, if your malaise at the lack of Pegu-nature continues, decrease the lemon juice.

Plus, there’s always the size of lemons to consider. Nice MxMo maiden post amigo, cheers to you and yours, as always.
