Cocktail Hour | The Brandy Alexander

Brandy Alexander Cocktail

This is legit one of my favorite little segments to write. I’m not a big drinker but I love how pretty some cocktails look, and it’s always fun to search the Interwebs looking for a pretty, seasonal one to share with you all.

This week’s selection – a perfectly wintery cocktail:

The Brandy Alexander.
