How To
How to make the Best Brandy Alex Recipe
The first step in any cocktail recipe is to find the right ingredients. This drink will use Cognac, a French distilled spirit made of fermented grapes. It is clear in most cases, but it can sometimes be aged in oak barrels. Cognac can be purchased at specialty liquor stores or online retailers such as Amazon.com.
The next step is to add simple syrup. Simple syrup is simply sugar that has been dissolved in water. We'll dissolve 1 cup of granulated white sugar into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved (about 5 minutes). Add enough cold tap water to cover the sugar by 2 inches. Allow to rest overnight. Strain out sugar crystals by using cheesecloth. Store the remaining liquid in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
We're going to mix Cognac and simple maple syrup together for our Brandy Alexander cocktail. In a shaker, add the Cognac and half of the ice cubes. Fill the rest with simple syrup. Stir vigorously for 10 second, then strain into a chilled martini. Top off the Brandy Alexander with a splash of soda water and garnish with a lemon twist.
