The Nicky Finn cocktail is one you could definitely refer to as sophisticated. It features brandy with a dash or Pernod, with Cointreau and lemon juice to balance.
But it’s an easy, smooth drink that doesn’t demand a specially trained palate. Brandy gets pleasantly overwhelmed by Cointreau and lemon juice, and that little dash of Pernod makes sure all the other ingredients play nice together.
Enjoy a Nicky Finn at a bar, with dinner, or with a conversation.

- 1 ounce Cointreau
- 1 ounce lemon juice
- 1 dash Pernod
