Provocative? Yes. Easy on the eyes? You betcha. Tasty drink? Affirmative. I don’t care much for brandy based drinks but I must say that this classic cocktail has all the goods. It’s simple enough to make and uses ingredients that you should be stocking your bar with. It is a sweet, citrus flavored cocktail with a nice balance of brandy and rum to add a little class. So whenever your tired of the same ‘ol, get between the sheets…you won’t be disappointed. The magic is:
1 1/4 ounces of brandy
1 ounce of white rum
1/2 ounce of Cointreau
3/4 ounce of fresh lemon juice
1/2 ounce of sugar syrup
Combine into a cocktail shaker with a cup of ice. Shake and serve into a chilled cocktail glass.
Recommended listening for between the sheets…classy, guitar-driven indie rock:
