Brandy Alexander

Ingredients

  • 2 oz. (60 ml) Maison Rouge V.S.O.P. Cognac
  • 1 oz. (30 ml) Tempus Fugit Spirits Crème de Cacao
  • 1 oz. (30 ml) Cream (**milk will not cut it here!**)

Instructions

  • Shake and double strain into a glass with no ice. Double straining is important. In a lot of cocktails I don't mind the little ice shards, but here they have no place.
  • Grated nutmeg for garnish

Verdict

Warming and fragrant. Depends a lot on the ingredients, so bring your best stuff!

Score

5/10

Notes

For an extra decadent alexander, substitute 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream for the cream. To mix, combine in a blender with half a scoop of ice for a frozen brandy alexander.
