More from the Sidecar family.
Tommy's Margarita
Tequila, lime, and agave nectar — the Margarita with the orange liqueur removed so the agave can talk.
Aviation
Gin and lemon, with maraschino for funk and crème de violette for colour. Tart, floral, and the palest shade of evening sky.
Corpse Reviver No. 2
Equal parts gin, Cointreau, Lillet, and lemon over an absinthe rinse. Craddock's morning cure; four of these, he warned, would undo the work.
