I'd give this recipe a 3 out of 5. It's not bad, but it's not the best Sidecar I've ever had.

Not a fan. The flavor was just too strong for my taste.

This Sidecar is everything I was hoping for and more. It's smooth, flavorful, and easy to make. I've already made it twice in the past week and I can't wait to make it again.

This cocktail is delightful! I love the citrusy flavor and the cognac gives it a nice kick. It's perfect for sipping on a warm evening.

This is the best Sidecar recipe I've ever tried. The combination of cognac, orange liqueur, and lemon juice is simply perfect. I've made it for my friends and family and they all love it. Highly recommend!

I followed the recipe exactly and my Sidecar turned out amazing! It was the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and boozy. I'm definitely adding this to my regular cocktail rotation.

Just okay. I thought the flavor was a bit too sweet for my taste.

Not bad for a classic cocktail. I prefer my Sidecars with a bit more lemon juice, but this was still a solid drink.

Easy to make and delicious! I used Grand Marnier instead of Cointreau and it was still fantastic. Will definitely be making this again.

I've tried many Sidecar recipes and this one is by far the best. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I especially loved the addition of the sugar rim. It made the drink feel extra special. 10/10 would recommend!

This Sidecar packs a punch! I followed the recipe exactly and the result was a perfectly balanced, flavorful cocktail. The orange liqueur and lemon juice added just the right amount of sweetness and tartness. Will definitely be making this again!
