How To
How to make the best brandy Alexander recipe
The first step in making any cocktail recipe is finding 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. You can find cognac at specialty liquor stores and online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, add simple syrup. Simple syrup is just sugar dissolved in water. We'll dissolve 1 cup of granulated white sugar into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely (about 5 minutes). You should add enough cold tap water to completely cover the sugar. Let it sit overnight. Strain the sugar crystals out of the cheesecloth and dispose them. You can store the liquid in your fridge for up 3 weeks in an airtight glass container.
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. The rest of the mixture should be filled with simple syrup. After shaking vigorously for 10 secs, strain the mixture into a chilled martini. Mix in a splash soda water to finish the Brandy Alexander. Garnish with a twist of lemon.
