San Antonio Gears Up for a Sweet Celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the Brandy Alexander Cocktail Tour

San Antonio Gets Ready to Celebrate the Brandy Alexander Cocktail

Hey there, cocktail lovers! If you’re in San Antonio, get ready to immerse yourself in a delightful experience that will make your taste buds dance with joy. This year marks a special occasion for the iconic Brandy Alexander as it celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Kinsman Brandy Alexander Tour, and it’s about to bring a wave of sweetness across this beautiful city!

A Sweet Twist on a Classic

The Brandy Alexander is not just any cocktail; it’s a delicious blend of flavors that feels like dessert in a glass. First crafted in the late 1800s, the original Alexander concocted gin, crème de cacao, and cream. However, in the early 20th century, barmasters decided to add a dash of sophistication by swapping gin for the smooth goodness of brandy. This modern twist led to the emergence of the Brandy Alexander, a drink that many San Antonians now hold dear to their hearts.

What’s the secret behind this dreamy cocktail? It involves a simple yet elegant recipe. Just mix equal parts of brandy, dark crème de cacao, and heavy cream, shake it all up with ice, and strain it into a chilled glass. To top it off, you can sprinkle a bit of freshly grated nutmeg—voilà! You’ve got a drink that’s rich, creamy, and oh-so-decadent. It truly embodies the essence of a dessert cocktail and is perfect for indulgent occasions.
