Review:

This follows the classic gin and sour lime sweetened and flavoured by apricot brandy but with extra-fruity freshness courtesy of a splash of peach schnapps. Generous use of bitters keeps that fruitiness in check.

Loved the balance between the gin and the fruit flavours. Left out the sugar syrup and still found the cocktail a bit sweet. I would say it was more a "6" than a "7". Very refreshing.
While it is chilled and I see also serving this over a large block of ice to put in a little more water. It would be a wonderful sipper on a hot afternoon or evening.
