Boston Sidecar

1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the cognac, triple sec, fresh lemon juice, and superfine sugar.
2. Fill the shaker with ice cubes, ensuring it is about three-quarters full.
3. Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to thoroughly mix and chill the ingredients.
4. Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass, using a cocktail strainer to remove any ice or pulp.
5. Garnish the drink with a lemon twist by twisting a strip of lemon peel over the glass to release its oils, then drop it into the drink.
6. Serve the Boston Sidecar immediately and enjoy!

Note: You can also rim the glass with sugar before pouring the drink for an added touch of sweetness. To do this, moisten the rim of the glass with a lemon wedge, then dip it into a plate of superfine sugar, coating the rim evenly.

The Boston Sidecar is a classic cocktail that combines the perfect balance of sweet and sour flavors. Made with equal parts brandy, orange liqueur, and lemon juice, this refreshing drink is served in a chilled glass with a sugar rim. The smoothness of the brandy is complemented by the citrusy notes of the orange liqueur and lemon juice, creating a delightful and sophisticated cocktail that is sure to please any palate.
