The Sidecar is one of the oldest and most revered cognac cocktails, and Courvoisier VS provides the ideal vibrant profile for it. The lively fruit notes of the cognac cut effortlessly through citrus and liqueur.
To mix a classic Sidecar, combine 50ml of Courvoisier VS, 25ml of orange liqueur, and 25ml of freshly squeezed lemon juice in a shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously until chilled to perfection.
Strain the liquid into a coupe glass with a sugared rim for that iconic sweet-tart balance. Garnish with an orange twist to release aromatic oils right over the surface of the drink.
