Sidecar Cocktail

Well it's almost Friday - but really only Wednesday night!  It just was a long day.
I found a cocktail in the 'S' section of the Bartender's Guide - a 'Sidecar Cocktail'.
I used a lemon from our Meyer lemon tree for the drink.
Of course I tripled this recipe to make 2 drinks for Olga and me, since I had to use all of the lemon.

Recipe (page no.159, Bartender's Guide):

Juice of 1/4 lemon (Meyer)
1/2 oz Triple Sec (LeRoux)
1 oz Brandy (St. Remy)

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass.

This was a very good cocktail, enhanced, I think, by the really fresh lemon.

Cheers.
