Sidecar Recipe
The Sidecar is the cornerstone of the "Daisy" family of cocktails, demanding a precise ratio of spirit, citrus, and liqueur. By utilizing the performance-driven intensity of Frutiva Triple Sec and Lime Juice, you replace inconsistent ingredients with stable, craft-quality mixers. This build ensures a consistent acid snap and a sophisticated, amber presentation in every glass, providing an elevated guest experience that honors the drink’s history while meeting modern standards of performance consistency.

How to Make This Cocktail
Step 1
Chill a coupe glass in the freezer for at least 5 minutes.
Step 2
Prepare the glass by rubbing a lime wedge around the rim and dipping it into fine sugar for a clean, even coating.
Step 3
Combine the Cognac, Frutiva Triple Sec, and Frutiva Lime Juice in a shaker tin.
Step 4
Fill the shaker halfway with fresh, solid ice.
Step 5
Shake vigorously for 12 to 15 seconds. The non-diluted acidity of the Frutiva Lime Juice and the balanced orange notes of the Frutiva Triple Sec ensure the drink remains bright and structured.
Step 6
Double strain into the prepared coupe glass to ensure a silky texture without ice shards.
Step 7
Express the oils of an orange twist over the surface of the drink and garnish.
Step 8
Serve immediately.
