How To
How To Make The Best Brandy Alexander Recipe
The first step to creating a cocktail is choosing the right ingredients. Cognac is a French spirit made with fermented grapes. We will use it in this cocktail. You'll often see it aged for a while in oak barrels. Cognac is available at specialty liquor shops and online retailers like Amazon.com.
The next step is to add simple syrup. Simple syrup simply means sugar dissolved with water. Over medium heat, we will dissolve 1 cup of granulated brown sugar in a small saucepan. Stir the mixture until it dissolves completely, which takes about 5 minutes. To cover the sugar, add 2 inches of cold tap water. Let stand overnight. Strain out any sugar crystals with cheesecloth. The liquid can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to three weeks.
Our Brandy Alexander Cocktail will be made with Cognac and simple syrup. Add the Cognac to a shaker. Top it with half a cup of ice cubes. The rest of the mixture should be filled with simple syrup. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds and strain into a chilled martini glass. Finish the Brandy Alexander by adding a splash more soda water. Garnish it with a lemon twist.
