Pegu Club

Pegu Club is a delicious cocktail made with a combination of gin, curaçao, lime juice, and bitters. To prepare it, all ingredients are shaken with crushed ice, then strained into a chilled cocktail glass which can be garnished with a lime twist.

The cocktail was first mentioned in Harry Craddock’s 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book, but it dates back to the 1920s, when it was first made in Myanmar, in the eponymous Pegu Club. It is recommended to prepare and drink the cocktail on a hot summer day.
