Sidecar

The Sidecar is a classic cocktail that combines equal parts of cognac, orange liqueur (such as Cointreau), and fresh lemon juice, creating a perfectly balanced drink with a tangy and refreshing flavor. Typically served in a chilled coupe glass with a sugared rim, the Sidecar is both elegant and timeless, making it a favorite among cocktail enthusiasts. Its origins date back to the early 20th century, adding a touch of historical charm to this delightful libation.
