Sidecars by the Fire

Written by Liz Published on November 25, 2016 in cocktails, recipes

It’s that time of year, when we break out the brandy.

Sidecar. Fire. Football. Cheers! #cocktails #lohudfood #njeats #northjersey #northjerseyeats

Sidecar takes the chill off. Our recipe is easy to remember 8-4-2. 8 brandy, 4 Cointreau, 2 lemon. Shake and strain.
