Snowy River Cocktail Decorating Recipes: Kentucky Sidecar
When one thinks about the classic 1920's Sidecar cocktail you typically gravitate to cognac and orange liqueurs with a dash of lemon. However, the Sidecar offers itself to a number of really fascinating taste variations and this Kentucky Sidecar is no exception. As its name suggests, it is bourbon rather than cognac based but still maintains the same orange and lemon overtones. Makes for a great aperitif alternative.
Ingredients:
- 2oz Bourbon.
- 1oz Cointreau.
- 1/2 oz Lemon Juice.
- Egg white.
- Snowy River Blue Dream Cocktail Sugar*.
We used a blue sugar blend here for a specific event, however this cocktail also looks amazing with our holiday blend or jewels cocktail sugars. For a slight variation try our Holiday cocktail salt blend.
Cocktail Recipe:
- Pre-rim half the glass with Snowy River Blue Dream cocktail sugar using simple syrup or egg white (for a thicker rim) as the binding agent.
- Fill shaker with ice to chill.
- Add bourbon, cointreau, lemon and egg white (always add egg last).
- Shake for 30 secs to cool, aerate and beat egg white.
- Strain over rocks.
- Extra Decorating: Add a smidgen of Snowy River cocktail glitter or sugar as an extra garnish on the foam.
Enjoy! Always drink responsibly.
