French Connection

Cognac, Grand Marnier
The Story

This cocktail came into being in the 1970s and is clearly named for the classic film of that era. It's a simple 2 ingredient cocktail with a lot of flavor. Difford's Guide has a recipe of the same name with just Cognac and Amaretto, but ours uses Grand Marnier (or some other Cognac-based orange liqueur). Try both and let us know what you think.

Ingredients

  • 1½ oz Cognac

  • 1 oz Grand Marnier

Preparation
  1. Combine ingredients in a mixing glass

  2. Stir with ice for 30 seconds

  3. Strain into a lowball with a large ice cube

  4. Garnish with an orange twist
