Ingredients for Sidecar Cocktail

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by rimming your cocktail glass with sugar. To do this, moisten the rim of the glass with a lemon wedge, then dip it into a plate of sugar to coat the rim evenly.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of Cognac, 1 oz of Orange Liqueur, and 3 oz of fresh lemon juice. Add ice cubes to the shaker.

  3. 3

    Shake Well

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds, until the mixture is well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass. Make sure to strain out the ice cubes.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a lemon twist by twisting a piece of lemon peel over the drink to release the oils and then placing it on the rim of the glass.
