Sidecar Cocktail Recipe
Some of the best drinks in the mixology canon are deceptive in their simplicity. Think of the Old Fashioned the Daiquiri the Gin Martini: making a morning cup of coffee is more complicated than making any of these drinks. But by combining the basic combination of two or three ingredients with some ice for excitement a perfect match of flavors can be achieved.
Serious Bites / Two Bites
Add one more drink to this list: the Sidecar. Like most cocktails the origins of the drink are unclear (be suspicious of those who can say for sure when or where the Sidecar was first mixed) but this beguiling blend of brandy lemon juice and orange liqueur began making the rounds in the most fashionable watering holes of London and Paris in the 1920s. The Sidecar is very simple in structure yet complex enough in flavor to satisfy even the most demanding palate but not so overloaded with mixological paraphernalia that it turns off the casual drinker.
