Sidecar Cocktail Recipe

One of my top 3 favorites!

Grand marnier is cognac, right? Is this basically GM with lemon juice?

Gonna be my job for next few years. Thank you sir.

Okay I am LOST. For the Cognac he said “50 mL which is just over 3/4 of an ounce” but an ounce is basically 30 mL so really...wouldn’t it be closer to 1 2/3 of an ounce?!

Pre-Smile Steve...I'll be damned

Great drink

The shake & stir app doesn't match this recipe. It says 50 ml Cognac, 20 mil Triple Sec, and 20 ml lemon juice. Which is right?

Where is the sidecar? The bar I use to go to in New Orleans poured the mixture that is left in the shaker after straining into a shot glass - hence the name side car.

Silly but can you convert that to ounces??

This is pre smiling through the shaking 😂

STEVE!!! This is becoming one of my fav cocktails. THANKS!!!

These videos are incredibly useful, and I like that you don’t make them 10 minutes long. Thanks a lot!

Seven munite finish

You said 50 mL was just over 3/4 of an ounce but I think you meant just under 1 3/4 oz

Just tried this with bourbon. It was amazing highly recommend a try.

I made these during my week off over Christmas. Played with the recipe. I found that 25 mils of Cointreau, 25 mils of fresh squeezed lemon juice and 50 mils of Brandy just worked for me. Shaken over ice, not stirred. Just tastes like Christmas 🎄 🎁🥃

No sugar rim mate? Isn't it part of the classic Sidecar?

Why didn’t he sugarcoat the rim of the coupe glass?

I love cognac. I love Cointreau. I mixed a Sidecar. Sorry but I didnt liked it. Prefere them seperetly.

My favourite cocktail, I always order it at a bar when I get the chance. Its fairly uncommon and not listed as often as a Negroni, old fashioned or martini. Making it at home is a lot of fun, but I prefer Grand Marnier over Cointreau

Rumor has it that the actual sidecar legend for the drink name was an English AJS motorcycle wired with Lucas Electrics that exited the road at considerable speed in the Cognac region of France at night. Another victim of the prince of darkness and no doubt many oiled roads due to the overabundance of British powered vehicles during WW1.

Your background is amazing!!! Very unique!! Great video! Thank you.

Sidecars are under rated ngl

good job...some would add sour mix which has lemon and sugar/water syrup or add sugar rim to provide a little sweetness

Been using brandy, and will now try Cognac next time.... Thanks for the heads up..

Awesome!

Small.measures.if you went to Spain or Turkey.youd get bigger portions.

The mixing and shaking was incredible

If you’re going to use metric for us yanks at least get it right. That’s confusing

Teach me how to share properly like you do

you didn't do the sugar rim. that's the best part of the drink.

Cheers!

Can u use whisky if u don't have cognac

That's some powerful shake
