How To
How To Make The Best Brandy Alexander Recipe
Finding the right ingredients is the first step in creating any cocktail recipe. For this drink, we're going to use Cognac, which is a French distilled spirit made from fermented grapes. You will usually find it clear, but you may see it aged in oak barrels. You can find cognac at specialty liquor stores and online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll make simple syrup. Simple syrup simply means sugar dissolved with water. We'll dissolve 1 cup of granulated white sugar into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely (about 5 minutes). You should add enough cold tap water to completely cover the sugar. Let stand overnight. Strain the sugar crystals using cheesecloth. Discard them. Store the remaining liquid in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
To make the Brandy Alexander Cocktail, combine Cognac and simple sugar. In a shaker, add the Cognac and half of the ice cubes. Add the simple syrup to the remainder of the shaker. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds and strain into a chilled martini glass. Top off the Brandy Alexander with a splash of soda water and garnish with a lemon twist.
