The Sidecar is arguably the most iconic cognac cocktail, perfectly balancing the warmth of VSOP with bright citrus and sweet orange liqueur. It is a refreshing yet sophisticated drink.
Combine two parts Courvoisier VSOP with one part fresh lemon juice and one part triple sec in a shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously until chilled to ensure proper dilution.
Strain the vibrant liquid into a chilled coupe glass with a sugared rim. The crisp acidity of the lemon cuts through the rich oak of the cognac, creating an unforgettable drinking experience.
