Brandy Alexander Instructions
The Brandy Alexander is a classic cocktail that has been enjoyed by cocktail enthusiasts for decades. This creamy and indulgent drink is made with brandy, creme de cacao, and cream. It is often garnished with a sprinkle of nutmeg on top, which adds a touch of warmth and flavor.
To make a Brandy Alexander, start by filling a cocktail shaker with ice. Add 2 ounces of brandy and 1 ounce of creme de cacao to the shaker. Shake well to combine the ingredients and chill the mixture.
Next, strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass. Slowly pour in 1 ounce of cream, allowing it to cascade over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect. This also helps to prevent the cream from curdling.
Finally, garnish the Brandy Alexander with a sprinkle of freshly grated nutmeg. The nutmeg adds a fragrant and slightly spicy note to the drink, which complements the sweetness of the brandy and creme de cacao.
The Brandy Alexander is a luxurious and indulgent cocktail that is perfect for sipping on a special occasion or as a dessert drink. Its rich and creamy flavors make it a popular choice for those who enjoy cocktails with a hint of sweetness. Whether you are a brandy aficionado or just looking to try something new, the Brandy Alexander is a drink that is sure to impress.
Best served in a Cocktail Glass.
