Cocktail Description
Cognac and elderflower join forces in this luxurious sipper that balances rich warmth with delicate floral notes.
The Elderflower Reverie delivers a sophisticated flavor profile where Hennessy's bold fruit and oak characteristics are softened by St-Germain's subtle sweetness, while fresh lemon provides bright acidity and agave syrup adds depth without overwhelming sweetness. This cocktail makes an excellent aperitif for dinner parties or a refined nightcap when you want something special but not overly strong. Thankfully, it's straightforward to prepare—just a quick shake with ice and strain—making it accessible even for novice home bartenders. The Elderflower Reverie pairs beautifully with charcuterie boards featuring mild cheeses and honey, or alongside light desserts like lemon tart or vanilla panna cotta, as its balanced profile won't overpower subtle flavors.
