Bôtan Peruvian Sour, a strong blend between sour notes, citrus and pepper
Haven't you had the chance to taste it? Make this cocktail yourself with the Peruvian Sour recipe.
Starting from the citrus notes and tingly sancho pepper of our blend Citrus Spice, we were inspired to create a sour cocktail with clean citrus flavours and no alcohol.
This limited batch cocktail is the result of an intense collaboration between Atelier Paul Morel and Bôtan Distillery. The idea behind this collaboration is to bring the pleasure of non-alcoholic drinking in one ready-to-serve- bottle.
About Bôtan Citrus Spice
Bôtan Citrus Spice is a bittersweet botanical distillate. The blend has welcoming etheric oils of orange fruits and mandarins, lengthened by subtle sweet citrus blossoms. Floral and tingly sansho pepper settles on the rear palate.
Till now, this blend could only be enjoyed at our beloved hospitality partners. Great chefs adore this blend because of the sophisticated flavours. Le Pristine (Antwerp) serves a non-alcoholic and citrus-forward G&T, whereas Atelier Maple (Antwerp) created a sophisticated non-alcoholic version of a Moscow Mule cocktail. Ogst (Hasselt) combines this blend in a vinaigrette paired with Holstein beef and watermelon.

About the Peruvian Sour cocktail
Together with Paul Morel, we’ve created a Peruvian Sour cocktail with unparalleled flavour. The sweet and sour flavours open up the play of botanicals. For the creation of this Peruvian Sour cocktail, Paul Morel started from the citrus flavours of Bôtan Citrus Spice.
This sophisticated cocktail is infused with Hoja Santa herbs and Peruvian Huacatay grown in our Belgian terroir. The Holy Leaf develops its flavours in moist soil and shade. Harvesting this elusive and complex flavour palette is intense, which makes Hoja Santa exclusive and high-priced.
Hoja Santa has complex flavour notes of anise, eucalyptus, nutmeg and tarragon, whereas Huacatay adds a round and sweet dimension of mint. Combined, these herbal flavours collide perfect with the punchy characteristics of our Citrus Spice blend.
