Classic Sidecar recipe
Posted 3 years, 3 months ago at 9:57 am. 0 comments
There are many different alcoholic drinks available in the shops that it is difficult to know what to buy. One of the simplest ways to find out which the best value for money wines are is to read reviews. At least that way you will have some knowledge of the type of wine it is as well as the quality of the wine. Recommendations are really one of the best way of discovering great wines.
I used to mostly drink cocktails and have a great Classic Sidecar recipe which I used to mix. Even the most seemingly difficult cocktails are actually easy to make. For instance, the Classic Sidecar recipe includes the following ingredients:
1 1/2 oz cognac
1 oz Cointreau® orange liqueur
1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
Cocktails are cool to have at a party or at a hip bar but they sure are expensive! Even during discount times, you can easily break your budget by having a couple of cocktails. So now, more often than not I will drink rose wine or champagne. I have discovered which are the best organic wines available and accept that drinking wine over cocktails generally means I get a delicious drink which is most likely healthier and with fewer calories.
Whenever possible I prefer to buy organic wines or preservative free wine. I adore American wines but am willing to try anything. I have also tried wines from Italy before and they have been some of the best wines I have ever had. It is not necessarily a good idea to choose a wine based on the region where it is made, you can be amazed at the quality of wines made in regions not known for wine production.
There are many sites where you can find wine recommendations to help you make a good choice in wine. Whether you prefer white or sparkling wine, you can find the latest reviews online. I prefer to read wine social media sites because you can then get immediate opinions on the wine you are considering purchasing.
If you are interested in organic wines then see Treehugger for details on how choosing organic food is less harmful for the environment. Wikipedia also has some great articles on organic farms and organic food and wine.
