Orchard Sidecar

AI-generatedEasyCoupe

A riff on the classic Sidecar — swaps Cointreau for apple juice and brandy for cognac, landing somewhere crisp, autumnal, and dangerously smooth; departing from the original by ditching the citrus-liqueur sweetness in favor of fresh orchard fruit.


Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 oz cognac
  • 1 1/4 oz apple juice

Method

  1. 11. Chill a coupe glass in the freezer for at least 5 minutes.
  2. 22. Add the cognac and apple juice to a shaker filled with ice.
  3. 33. Shake hard for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is frost-covered.
  4. 44. Double-strain into the chilled coupe to ensure a silky, pulp-free texture.
  5. 55. Serve immediately.

PRO TIP

Use a cloudy, unfiltered apple juice — the natural pectin adds subtle body that mimics the mouthfeel you'd normally get from a triple sec.

Garnish — thin apple fan
