Cognac summit: ultimate cognac cocktail

There’s so much more you can do with cognac than simply sip it slowly. For example, you can make incredibly delicious cocktails with it.

This cocktail was developed during the international Cognac Conference in 2008. During this event hosted by the Bureau National Interprofessionnel du Cognac, the task was to create the ultimate cognac cocktail. The cocktail had to be easy to make, use simple ingredients, look fantastic and, of course, taste amazing. After a few days, the cognac summit was born, and nowadays it can be found on many cocktail menus around the world.

Method
Place the lime peel and ginger slices in a large glass. Pour in the cognac. Gently muddle the lime and ginger. Fill half the glass with ice. Stir well for about 5 seconds. Then add the lemonade and cucumber peel. Stir well once more and the perfect cocktail is born.
