FAQ
How can I tell if a drink has too much alcohol?
Strong drinks have more alcohol than weak drinks. The proof measures the amount of alcohol contained in a drink. One proof equals one percent alcohol for each 100g grain alcohol volume. So a 12 oz. bottle of wine would be ten proofs, and a 16 oz. Beer would be 13 proofs and 40 oz. 45 proofs for a bottle scotch.
What is a shaker and how can it help you?
A shaker is used for mixing two or more ingredients. A strainer is included in the shaker to allow you to strain out any solids. The lid helps to prevent any unwanted odors from escaping during shaking.
What does it mean to say, "I'm having too much fun?"
This means the person has had too many drinks.

How To
How to Make the Best Brandy-Alexander Recipe
The first step in making any cocktail recipe is finding the right ingredients. For this drink, we're going to use Cognac, which is a French distilled spirit made from fermented grapes. You will usually find it clear, but you may see it aged in oak barrels. Cognac is available at specialty liquor shops and online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll make simple syrup. Simple syrup is sugar dissolved into water. We'll dissolve 1 cup of granulated white sugar into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stirring for 5 minutes until sugar is completely dissolved. Pour enough cold tapwater to cover sugar by 2 inches. Let it sit overnight. Strain out sugar crystals by using cheesecloth. Store the remaining liquid in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Our Brandy Alexander Cocktail will be made with Cognac and simple syrup. Add the Cognac to a shaker. Top it with half a cup of ice cubes. Fill the rest with simple syrup. After shaking vigorously for 10 secs, strain the mixture into a chilled martini. Mix in a splash soda water to finish the Brandy Alexander. Garnish with a twist of lemon.
