Cocktail Description
Imagine an elegant dance between cardamom's exotic warmth and cognac's noble character, topped with a whisper of nutmeg—that's the Cardamom Cognac Fizz in a nutshell.
This sophisticated cocktail balances the rich, grape-forward notes of Hennessy V.S. with the honeyed herbal complexity of Bénédictine and bright apricot sweetness from Giffard liqueur. The freshly muddled cardamom infuses the drink with aromatic spice that tingles the nose while lemon juice provides just enough acidity to keep everything lively and balanced. Perfect for fall and winter gatherings when you want to impress without spending hours behind the bar, this cocktail comes together with a quick shake and fine strain. The Cardamom Cognac Fizz pairs beautifully with cheese plates featuring aged Gouda or Comté, and it stands up nicely to spiced desserts like apple tarte tatin or cardamom-infused crème brûlée.
