Between The Sheets Cocktail
A classic sidecar riff from Harry’s New York Bar.
Similar to a sidecar, but with a split-base of cognac and rum, this classic cocktail recipe was originally created at Harry’s New York Bar in Paris in the 1920s. As with all spirit-forward drinks, seek out good-quality bottles for each of the components.
