How To
How To Make The Best Brandy Alexander Recipe
The first step in any cocktail recipe is to find the right ingredients. 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. You can purchase cognac from specialty liquor stores as well as online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll make simple syrup. Simple syrup is sugar that is dissolved in 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. 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.
To make the Brandy Alexander Cocktail, combine Cognac and simple sugar. Combine the Cognac with simple syrup in a shaker. Fill it half-way with ice cubes. Fill the rest with simple syrup. Mix vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into chilled martini glasses. Mix in a splash soda water to finish the Brandy Alexander. Garnish with a twist of lemon.
