Pegu Club

By , from the Jacob Grier collection
Serves 1

Introduction

The Pegu Club is a great summer gin cocktail, first described in the 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book as “the favourite cocktail of the Pegu Club, Burma, and one that has traveled, and is asked for, round the world.” The original Pegu Club is no longer open for business, but an excellent cocktail bar by that name has opened in New York City. You can order one there or make this contemporary adaptation of the drink at home.

Ingredients

oz. gin
¾ oz. Cointreau
½ oz. lime juice
1 dash Angostura bitters
1 dash orange bitters

Steps

  1. Put all the ingredients into a cocktail shaker. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.
