The classic Monkey Gland, built on gin with orange juice, raspberry syrup and absinthe, is often considered sweet and unfocused by modern drinkers. This 2013 version adds acid and bitters and replaces the orange juice with an orange liqueur, giving something close to a Pegu Club with berry notes and an absinthe rinse.
