This is a tequila homage to the classic Sidecar – as quintessentially citrusy as the original and equally as sophisticated when using a reposado or anejo.
Ingredients:
- Reposado Tequila – 2 ounces
- Fresh Lemon Juice – 1 ounce
- Fresh Orange Juice – 1 ounce
- Cointreau – 1 ounce
- Superfine Sugar – 1 tsp
- Lemon Twist
- Sugar (to rim the glass)
- Lemon Wedge
Method:
- Rub the rim of a chilled cocktail glass with the lemon wedge and rim with sugar.
- Shake the liquid ingredients and the superfine sugar vigorously with ice.
- Strain into the prepared glass.
- Garnish with lemon twist.
- Serve.
