New favorite retro drink: Upper East Sidecar

The Palm Steakhouse in Buckhead makes my favorite version of the classic sidecar. Simple but elegant. I will drink this while watching re-runs of Mad Men and dreaming about owning a butterfly-roof midcentury modern dream home in Palm Springs.

2 oz. VSOP Remi Martin Cognac
1 oz. Cointreau
Splash of lemon juice

Shake well with ice and strain into a sugar-rimmed martini glass. Garnish with an orange slice.
