Parisian Sidecar

Chill a cocktail coupe in advance to ensure a refreshing experience.

Prepare a lemon zest twist for the garnish.

Combine the cognac, elderflower liqueur, and freshly squeezed lemon juice in a cocktail shaker.

Add ice to the shaker and shake vigorously until well-chilled.

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

Express the lemon zest twist over the cocktail to release its oils, then place it as a garnish on the drink.
