How to make the Best Brandy Alex Recipe
The first step in any cocktail recipe is to find the right ingredients. We're using Cognac to make this drink. It is a French spirit made from fermented grapes. It is clear in most cases, but it can sometimes be aged in oak barrels. You can find cognac at specialty liquor stores and online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, add simple syrup. Simple syrup is sugar that is dissolved in water. One cup of granulated white Sugar will be dissolved in a small saucepan. Heat on medium. Stir the mixture until it dissolves completely, which takes about 5 minutes. Add enough cold tap water to cover the sugar by 2 inches. Allow to sit for at least two hours. Strain the sugar crystals using cheesecloth. Discard them. You can store the liquid in your fridge for up 3 weeks in an airtight glass container.
