Help with Dry Curacao

Post by Rocafire »

Hello guys, I was looking forward to make a Dry Curacao in the stile of Pierre Ferrand's one, so brandy based, but I can't find any recipes with brandy as a base, only vodkas one. How can I proceed? Just let the peel infuse then strain it after a couple of days and call it done?
Also, I wouldn't add any syrups, I would like to keep the abv of the brandy. Is this a viable option?
Otherwhise I thought about infusing orange peels in 2 containers, one with brandy and some other peels in 96% alchool, but a very small amount, about 300mL max. Let it sit for a week and then mixing it togheter and diluting it with water to 40% abv
Wich is the best solution?
Thank you very much for everyone that helps!
