History:
Adapted from a recipe created in 2008 by Chris Hannah at Arnaud's French 75 Bar, New Orleans, USA.
Review:
Chris originally garnished this Calvados Sidecar/Applecart-like cocktail with brandied cherries, but Strega's excellent chocolates seemed a far more fitting accoutrement for our photograph.
