Chill a cocktail coupe in advance to ensure the perfect serving temperature.

Prepare a lemon zest twist for garnish, setting it aside for later use.

Shake the calvados or apple brandy, cognac, triple sec, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and optional rich sugar syrup with ice until well chilled and combined.

Fine strain the mixture into the pre-chilled coupe glass.

Express the lemon zest twist over the cocktail, releasing its aromatic oils, and then use it as a garnish.
