Brandy Alexandra: As the name suggests, it is a brandy- based cocktail combined with dark crème de cacao and cream mixed in a shaker half filled with ice. It is normally garnished with nutmeg. As the history would have it, this drink was first served at the wedding between the Princess Mary and Lord Lascelles in London in 1922 and thereafter the drink became popular. This drink should not be confused with another cocktail called Panama where light crème de cacao is used instead of the dark one in Brandy Alexandra.
