Between the Sheets
Between the Sheets is a bold and citrusy twist on the classic Sidecar, offering a well-balanced mix of spirits and fresh lemon juice. This cocktail combines white rum, cognac, triple sec, and lemon juice to create a vibrant and refreshing drink. The smoothness of cognac meets the brightness of citrus and the crispness of rum, making it a layered experience. It is traditionally shaken with ice and served straight up in a chilled cocktail glass. The origins of the drink are debated, but it is believed to have been created in the 1920s at Harry’s New York Bar in Paris. Often enjoyed as an aperitif, it delivers both warmth from the spirits and a refreshing zing from the citrus. The combination of sweet, sour, and boozy makes it an excellent choice for those who enjoy complex yet balanced cocktails. A drink perfect for special occasions or an elegant night out.
