How to make the best brandy Alexander recipe
Finding the right ingredients is the first step in creating any cocktail recipe. For this drink, we're going to use Cognac, which is a French distilled spirit made from fermented grapes. Although it is usually clear, you might see oak barrels. You can buy cognac online at Amazon.com or specialty liquor stores.
Next, we'll add some simple syrup. Simple syrup is just sugar dissolved in water. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of granulated syrup. Stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved (about 5 minutes). You should add enough cold tap water to completely cover the sugar. Let sit overnight. 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.
For our Brandy Alexander Cocktail, we're going to combine Cognac and simple syrup together. Add the Cognac to a shaker. Top it with half a cup of ice cubes. Add the simple syrup to the remainder of the shaker. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds and strain into a chilled martini glass. Top off the Brandy Alexander with a splash of soda water and garnish with a lemon twist.
