This simple mix is drunk in Normandy, where Calvados is made, and at the San Francisco restaurants run by Thad Vogler, a Calvados advocate. He likes to enjoy it the way he was introduced to it. That is, simply—just two ounces of brandy and twice as much tonic, perfectly chilled and served without ice or garnish. In this form, it is a bracer, one that concentrates the mind wonderfully.
