Simply add Cognac or Amaretto for a Lemon Balm & Sage Sidecar with Spiced Cherry Bitters
Historians are uncertain whether the Sidecar cocktail – named for the motorcycle attachment – originated in London, Paris or New Orleans. They agree, however, that it is one of the classic cocktails, with deep roots in mixology. A cocktail which traditionally balances the flavors of well-pedigreed liquors like Cognac and Cointreau with fresh lemon juice and a touch of sugar, this version ups the ante with a layer of citrus-mint from the lemon balm and herbal, eucalyptus notes from a generous sprinkling of sage. The aromatic and lingering top-notes from the spiced cherry bitters are enhanced by a well-integrated acidity which intensifies the drinker’s experience.
