Two Vodka Sidecar cocktails on a table in a modern lounge in daytime

The Vodka Sidecar is a zesty twist on the traditional Sidecar cocktail and uses vodka instead of brandy or Cognac. Grand Marnier orange liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and a sugared rim join the party to create a refreshing and zingy cocktail that’s perfect for warmer evenings. A great cocktail for sweet and sour fans.

02

Chill your serving glasses in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.

For extra zing, add some lemon zest to the castor sugar before rimming the glass.
