Classic Recipe No. 35 —

Sidecar

  • 2 oz brandy (cognac)
  • 1 oz Cointreau
  • 1 oz lemon juice

Shake with ice and strain into a chilled, sugar-rimmed cock­tail glass.

Gar­nish with a orange twist.

Could use a flamed orange peel instead of the orig­i­nal lemon twist garnish.

This is a true clas­sic. This for­mula spawned many mod­ern drinks like the Mar­garita, Kamikaze, and the Cosmopolitan.
