Sidecar Cocktail
1 serving
3 minutes
Legend has it that this cocktail was born at the end of World War I in Paris - in a bistro where an American army captain would roll up on a motorcycle with a sidecar (that's what a sidecar is) for a drink or two. Then bartender Pat McGarry brought the recipe to London - and the cocktail gained worldwide fame.
