Also not convinced of this cocktail. It could be that one has to adapt this cocktail each time to the used products, because they can be so different. Today I added a splash lemon juice, but still the result is not really balanced..

Starts a bit sweet but then quickly balances and finishes with peach and orange flavors. Wondering if Orange bitters may help with the initial sweetness.

Unfortunately I found this too sweet to be refreshing. Next time I’m going to try it with some lemon or use that Gordon’s peach gin someone gave me in place of the schnapps.
