It’s been my tradition to have a brandy alexander while my wife and I decorate the Christmas tree. Been doing that for years, until last when when I discovered all the Alexander variations. This year I tried this example and it leaves me flat. There just seem to be much to it. I added a half ounce of crème de cacao, which helped, but still doesn’t compete against my current favorite, the Hazelnut Alexander.
