Sweet Sherries come in a multitude of forms and quality levels, Pedro Ximénez (or “PX Sherry”) has a deep, dark hue, a raisin-like sweetness, and viscous consistency some liken to maple syrup. Bartenders love it because it adds dried fruit sweetness and viscosity to cocktails. It can also stand up to more robust textures, like egg whites, and assertive flavors.
