We like to call this cocktail the Carjack. It’s little twist on a Sidecar, but it’s made with applejack brandy rather than cognac. Clever, huh?
Carjack
Original Sour Cherry Farm recipe here: Carjack.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Laird's Applejack Brandy
- 4 ounces Cointreau
- 2 ounces lemon juice
Instructions
- Set ice and water in cocktail glasses to chill them. Combine ingredients in a small pitcher and stir. Pour some into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Empty the water from the glasses. Shake vigorously and strain into the glasses. Garnish with a lemon twist. You may also rim the glass with sugar, but we don’t usually bother.
- Serves 4.
