Review

The similarity of ingredients in this tequila-based riff on the classic Pegu Club to the Margarita are obvious, so it's not surprising the finished drink is reminiscent of a Margarita, only lighter with the lime notes a lot subtler. As well as the tequila, orange curaçao shines in this drink.

Mine came out too much for my palate on the sour side. For me it would probably benefit using Cointreau or an equivalent Triple Sec or add a dash of sugar syrup.

Agreed. The original recipe was from the days when orange curacao was sweeter so I've added a spoon of agave syrup to balance.
