I'm not a big fan of Calvados, but I really enjoyed this cocktail. The cognac and lemon juice balance out the Calvados flavor perfectly.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cocktail turned out way too sweet. I think I added too much simple syrup.

This cocktail is a great way to warm up on a cold day. The Calvados and cognac really pack a punch.

I found the lemon juice to be a bit too tart in this cocktail. I would recommend using less lemon juice or adding a bit of simple syrup.

This cocktail is a bit too strong for my taste. I would recommend using less Calvados or cognac.

I'm not usually a fan of Calvados, but this cocktail changed my mind. The flavors are so well-balanced and the Calvados really shines through. I'll definitely be making this again.

This cocktail is a delightful twist on the classic Sidecar. The Calvados adds a rich, apple-y flavor that pairs perfectly with the cognac and lemon juice. I garnished mine with a lemon twist and it was the perfect finishing touch.
