Between the Sheets Cocktail
The Between the Sheets cocktail is essentially a twist on the Sidecar, incorporating rum alongside cognac, triple sec (or orange liqueur), and lemon juice.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 3/4 ounce Cognac
- 3/4 ounce white rum or aged
- 3/4 ounce Cointreau
- 3/4 ounce fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Combine Cognac, rum, Cointreau, and lemon juice in a shaker with ice.
- Shake and double strain into a chilled coupe glass.
Notes
Chill your glasses in the freezer. A cold glass prevents warming and keeps your drink colder for longer.
To make a fancy lemon peel garnish, trim the edges of a thin lemon peel with a sharp knife into your desired shape. A peeler works best for creating a thin peel. Garnish the cocktail with a twist of orange or lemon.
Always double-strain shaken cocktails. This prevents tiny ice chips from entering the drink, creating further dilution. Get more helpful cocktail tips and my list of essential bar tools.
