#80 Cocktail: Calvados

   As the name says the main ingredient is the calvados. The apple flavour is combined here with the sweet orange juice and with the sourness of the lemon juice, both in equal parts. If you look closely to this cocktail recipe, you will notice that is nothing more than a twist on the Sidecar cocktail, replacing the cognac with the calvados and adding a little bit of orange juice to balance a little the sour lemon.
    It's an interesting cocktail and it deserves a try.
Oh, no particular history for this one....or I couldn't find one. If you find something, please tell me too.

2 ounces Calvados
1/2 ounce triple sec
1/2 ounce fresh orange juice
1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice
angostura bitters to taste
