Instructions

• Step 1: Pour brandy, liqueur, and lemon juice in shaker Pour the brandy, orange liqueur, and freshly squeezed lemon juice into a cocktail shaker.
• Step 2: Add ice and shake Fill the cocktail shaker with ice and shake it about twenty times to mix your drink.
• TIP: Don’t over-shake your drink. Too much shaking will cause the ice to melt and can give you a more diluted drink.
• Step 3: Strain into a cocktail glass Strain the mixed drink from the shaker into a cocktail glass.
• TIP: To add extra sweetness and enhance the presentation, run a lemon wedge around the rim of your glass and dip the rim in superfine sugar before pouring your drink.
• Step 4: Garnish with a lemon wedge and serve Garnish the filled cocktail glass with a lemon wedge, and enjoy!
• FACT: It's thought that the sidecar was created in Paris during World War I for an American soldier who traveled to the bar from the front lines of battle in the sidecar of a motorcycle.
