Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, add Hennessy Cognac, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the shaker with ice cubes to ensure that the mixture is well chilled.

  4. 4

    Shake Well

    Securely fasten the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.

  5. 5

    Prepare Glass

    Discard the ice water from your chilled cocktail glass.

  6. 6

    Strain and Serve

    Using a fine mesh strainer, pour the cocktail into the chilled glass to remove ice shards.

  7. 7

    Garnish

    Finish by adding a fresh lemon twist on top for garnish. You can express the oils from the lemon peel over the drink before placing it in the glass.
