Cognac cocktails to try at home

Cognac based cocktails include classics like the Sidecar and Sazerac, plus richer, spirit forward serves such as the Vieux Carré.

If you are looking for a bright, balanced drink, the Sidecar is the go to: cognac with triple sec and lemon juice, shaken cold for a crisp, elegant sour. For something deeper and more aromatic, the Sazerac leans into bitters, sugar and a touch of absinthe, giving a powerful, slow sipper style.

Prefer an easy cognac mixed drink with minimal fuss? The French Connection is a simple two ingredient pairing of cognac and amaretto, smooth and after dinner friendly.

If you want a cognac cocktail with bubbles, try the Cognac Pick Me Up (cognac topped with Champagne or prosecco) or Le commerce, which combines cognac with Cointreau, white vermouth and fizz for a lighter, aperitif leaning feel.

A few more great cognac options from this list:

Champs Élysées for a more complex cognac sour
Vieux Carré and The Bâton Rouge for stirred, spirit forward depth

All of the cocktails above are built around cognac, so you can choose by style rather than hunting for recipes that only use a splash.
