The re-engineering of this recipe to make it taste unique enough from the Sidecar is ridiculous. I've been through five spec tweaks and none of them truly highlight the grapefruit, even after replacing the Ango with BT Grapefruit bitters (which I'm second+ guessing because it removes underlying complexity)... The recipe above is reluctantly my favorite, and the most distinctive, despite not resulting in a moreish swill... I'll keep chipping away...
Just made a 'Bloody Bronx' with the Golden Bronx recipe, unplanned. And... not great.
Chris, I'm going to have to revisit this drink. Can't quite remember making this. Looking at my comment, though, I would bet I was trying to find ways of getting rid of a particular brand of creme de cacao on my shelf that didn't thrill me.
Just the way I am, but... I see the name of the drink 'Peach Me', and I hear James Brown in 'Superbad' singing it - "PEACH ME!!"
