How To
How to make the Best Brandy Alex Recipe
Finding the right ingredients is the first step in creating any cocktail recipe. Cognac is a French spirit made with fermented grapes. We will use it in this cocktail. You will usually find it clear, but you may see it aged in oak barrels. You can purchase cognac from specialty liquor stores as well as online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll make simple syrup. Simple syrup simply means sugar dissolved with water. Let's melt 1 cup of granulated sugar in a small saucepan on medium heat. Stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved (about 5 minutes). You should add enough cold tap water to completely cover the sugar. Allow to sit for at least two hours. Strain the sugar crystals using cheesecloth. Discard them. The liquid can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to three weeks.
For our Brandy Alexander Cocktail, we're going to combine Cognac and simple syrup together. Combine the Cognac with simple syrup in a shaker. Fill it half-way with ice cubes. Fill the rest of the way with simple syrup. After shaking vigorously for 10 secs, strain the mixture into a chilled martini. Mix in a splash soda water to finish the Brandy Alexander. Garnish with a twist of lemon.
