How To
How to make the Best Brandy Alex Recipe
Finding the right ingredients is the first step to making a cocktail recipe. We're using Cognac to make this drink. It is a French spirit made from fermented grapes. Although it is usually clear, you might see oak barrels. Cognac is available at specialty liquor shops and online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we will 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 until the sugar completely dissolves (about five minutes). Add enough cold tapwater to fully cover the sugar by 2" Let sit overnight. Strain out sugar crystals by using cheesecloth. For up to 3 weeks, store any liquid in an airtight container in the fridge.
We're going to mix Cognac and simple maple syrup together for our Brandy Alexander cocktail. Pour the Cognac into a shaker filled halfway with ice cubes. Add the simple syrup to the remainder of the shaker. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds and strain into a chilled martini glass. Mix in a splash soda water to finish the Brandy Alexander. Garnish with a twist of lemon.
