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!

Re: Brandy based Dry Curacao
Search the internet and the forum for triple sec and other related key words. It's doubtful you will find an actual recipe, but there is enough information on the net to be able to do all of the distillations needed for blending the final product.
