How to make the Best Brandy Alex Recipe

You will usually find it clear, but you may see it aged in oak barrels. You can purchase cognac from specialty liquor stores as well as online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll make simple syrup. Simple syrup is just sugar dissolved in water. Let's melt 1 cup of granulated sugar in a small saucepan on medium heat. Stir the mixture until it dissolves completely, which takes about 5 minutes. You should add enough cold tap water to completely cover the sugar. Allow to sit for at least two hours. Strain the sugar crystals out of the cheesecloth and dispose them. For up to 3 weeks, store any liquid in an airtight container in the fridge.
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 with simple syrup.
