A great after-dinner cocktail for lovers of brandy and Chartreuse. The sweet elements in this sour are cranked up but balanced by spiritous alcohol. Achieving...
Delicious Classic! Variation: Substitute Cognac with a good Calvados, whose fine an dry apple aromas round up perfect with the Chartreuse.

Oh it turns out that instead of simple syrup, I used this herbal chinese medicinal concoction that my girlfriend's mother made for me. It's supposed to be helpful for alleviating a pinch nerve, but it certainly not a good sub for sugar water. Going to try this one again tonight with the right ingredients this time. Cheers!
