FRENCH EXIT
A refined departure from the classic Sidecar, pairing cognac with Blanc Vermouth, orange liqueur and fresh lemon. The vermouth lends a floral, wine-like softness to the warm brandy and bright citrus, making this an elegant original house variation.
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 Oz. (37.5 ml) Cognac
- 1 Oz. (30 ml) Blanc Vermouth
- 1/2 Oz. (15 ml) Orange liqueur
- 3/4 Oz. (22.5 ml) Fresh lemon juice
Method
- Chill a Nick & Nora glass. Shake cognac, Blanc Vermouth, orange liqueur and fresh lemon juice with plenty of ice until well chilled. Double-strain into the chilled glass and garnish with a thin lemon or orange twist. Use a brandy-based orange liqueur for a warmer, richer expression.
