Mary's Lemon-Bourbon Sidecars

Serves
2

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 Meyer lemon wedge
  • Ice, cubed or crushed
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed Meyer lemon juice (from about 3 Meyer lemons)
  • 1/2 cup (4 ounces) bourbon
  • 1/4 cup (2 ounces) orange liqueur, preferably Cointreau, or maple syrup or honey simple syrup.

Directions

  1. Pour the sugar into a shallow dish. Rub the rims of two sidecar glasses with the lemon wedge and dip the rims in the sugar to create a sugared rim.

  2. Fill a cocktail shaker half full with ice. Add the lemon juice, bourbon, and orange liqueur. Cover and shake. Strain into the prepared glasses and serve.
