The Sidecar is a classic cocktail that has stood the test of time. Made with equal parts of Cognac, orange liqueur, and freshly squeezed lemon juice, this drink exudes sophistication and elegance. Its origins are debated, with some attributing its creation to Paris or London in the early 20th century. The balance of the rich Cognac, the bright citrus, and the sweetness of the orange liqueur creates a harmonious flavor profile that is both timeless and beloved by cocktail enthusiasts around the world. Garnished with a sugared rim or a twist of lemon, the Sidecar remains a staple in cocktail bars for those who appreciate refined and balanced libations.
