How To
How to make the best brandy Alexander recipe
Finding the right ingredients is the first step in creating any cocktail recipe. We're using Cognac to make this drink. It is a French spirit made from fermented grapes. It is clear in most cases, but it can sometimes be aged in oak barrels. Cognac is available at specialty liquor shops and online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll add some simple syrup. Simple syrup is sugar dissolved into water. We'll dissolve 1 cup of granulated white sugar into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir the mixture until it dissolves completely, which takes about 5 minutes. To cover the sugar, add 2 inches of cold tap water. Let sit overnight. Strain out the sugar crystals through cheesecloth and discard them. The liquid can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to three weeks.
To make the Brandy Alexander Cocktail, combine Cognac and simple sugar. 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. Mix vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into chilled martini glasses. Serve the Brandy Alexander with soda water. Garnish with a lemon twist.
