Canadian Cherry

Tonight's choice was a 'Canadian Cherry' cocktail from page no. 55 of our Bartender's Guide. I chose this drink so we could use our new old-fashioned Mardi Gras glasses a friend gave us (Mardi Gras season is starting up here in Louisiana).

The drink was very good. Olga and I both enjoyed it and will have another at some point.

The recipe:
1 1/2 oz. Canadian Whiskey (Canadian Club)
1/2 oz. Cherry Brandy (LeRoux)
1 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice
1 1/2 tsp Orange Juice

Shake all ingredients and strain into old-fashioned glass over ice cubes. Moisten glass rim with cherry brandy.

 I skipped the last instruction!

 Cheers.
