Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 1.5 oz Brandy; 0.5 oz Cherry Brandy; 1.5 tsp Triple Sec Liqueur; 1.5 tsp Grenadine; 2 tsp Lemon Juice

Bright cherry and grenadine give this cocktail a sweet, fruit-forward profile softened by warm brandy and a touch of orange from the triple sec; lemon adds a clean, balancing tartness. It pours a deep pink-red with a powdered-sugar rim and cherry garnish, making it an attractive, dessert-like sipper worth ordering for a short, flavorful cocktail.
