How To

How to make the Best Brandy Alex 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. It's usually clear, although sometimes you'll see it aged in oak barrels. Cognac can be purchased at specialty liquor stores or online retailers such as Amazon.com.

Next, we'll add some simple syrup. Simple syrup is sugar dissolved into water. We'll dissolve 1 cup of granulated white sugar into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar completely dissolves (about five minutes). Add enough cold tap water to cover the sugar by 2 inches. Let sit overnight. Strain out the sugar crystals through cheesecloth and discard them. You can store the liquid in your fridge for up 3 weeks in an airtight glass container.

To make the Brandy Alexander Cocktail, combine Cognac and simple sugar. Place the Cognac in a shaker and fill it halfway with ice cubes. Fill the rest of the way 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.
