Brandy Daisy

Description

As a classic cocktail dating from the mid-to-late 1800s, the Brandy Daisy is a classic. This recipe follows Jerry Thomas's earliest known version. The "daisy" is actually not a single drink; it's the name of an entire family of drinks. They're essentially fizzy sour drinks with base spirits, simple syrup, curacao liqueur, lemon juice, and soda water, containing a base spirit, simple syrup, curacao liqueur, lemon juice, and soda water in their formula.
