Pegu Club

The Pegu Club cocktail is a gin-based cocktail that was the signature drink of the Pegu Club, a British colonial-era club located just outside Rangoon, Burma. The cocktail’s flavor profile of gin, lime juice, and orange liqueur, with hints of bitters and herbs, makes it a refreshing and sophisticated alternative to classic cocktails like the Martini or Margarita.
