Sidecar (Difford's spec.)

Cognac shines over freshening lemon and orange zestiness. Hopefully, you'll find this recipe perfectly balanced, but those with a sweet tooth may prefer...

I never got to enjoy a Sidecar, neither Difford's nor the traditional. I dont want to rate it, I just dont get it. I wish I did. But I immensely enjoy a Champ-Élysées, maybe a link to that cocktail could be usefull for us needing more that cognac and cointreau ;-O

Delicious. I particularly enjoy the battle between the lemon and the orange. Salt is also a winner. I just sugar coated half of the rim and alternated which side to sip from.

Wow. Sidecars were already one of my favorites, but with the Pineau de Charentes and a little saline, this goes from a classic to a masterpiece ! Splendid !

I found this cocktail to be just... fine. It's well balanced, there is nothing wrong with the specs as stated, but I also found it a little bit underwhelming. It may just not be to my taste, can't win 'em all.

Sidecars were the cocktail I drank on my honeymoon 22 years ago. Made this to celebrate my anniversary tonight and it was spectacular.

Outstanding. Perfectly balanced. Sweetness is spot on. A wonderful way to salute Bastille Day before dinner.
