Sidecar Cocktail
Commanders Palace
The Commander's Palace New Orleans Cookbook
by Ella and Dick Brennan, 1984, Crown Publishing Group
"The sidecar was once the smart drink of two continents. It
was
the inspiration
for the Duke of Windsors Cointreau drink that he
named the
Wallis Blue for
his bride at their prenuptial dinner.
Folklore relates that it was originally created by accident when an
innkeeper
in France, upset by news of his sidecars being damaged,
mistakenly
combined orders for brandy, Cointreau, and lemon juice
in a single glass. The result
found
instant popularity."
