I recently attended snazzy little event for a great new cocktail book, Vintage Cocktails, and while I thoroughly enjoyed my sidecar, I must admit the sugared rim was a bit much. I know it is supposed to be there, and one sip with sugar is great, but after that, it is almost excessive. You could solve that by only drinking from the same spot, but that requires paying a bit too much attention for my taste.
I think instead only half of the rim should only be sugared (or salted or candied, etc.).
Especially when preparing glassing before guests arrive, they are then ready for any taste… and saves you from asking “with or without salt?” on the margs!
Sorry I didn’t snap more pics at the event – was too busy oogling all the Baccarat glasses (especially the new colors) and enjoying Brian’s creations…
