    What is a brandy and dr pepper?

    A Brandy and Dr Pepper is very simply put a cocktail made of mixing Brandy with Dr pepper.

    Brandy is an interesting liquor. It tends to have a fruity flavor. Essentially it is a fermented and aged fruit liquor. All Brandy is aged in barrels but different Brandy is aged at different times and made with different fruits.

    Dr Pepper is a complex tasting soda. It is a mix of 23 different flavors so it can be difficult to pinpoint exactly what it tastes like. It does have strong flavors of spices and Cherry as well as notes of licorice almond and vanilla.

    As you might expect, mixing these two together results in a bold flavored cocktail full of spice and fruit flavor.

    Dr Pepper also mixes well with other liquors. Some similar tasting would be, Amaretto and Dr Pepper or Whiskey and Dr Pepper.

    Instructions:

    Step one

    As you get ready to make this cocktail, you first want to gather your equipment and ingredients together.

    Step two

    Once you have everything gathered, get ready to prepare your garnish.

    To make a lime wedge you want to take your lime and cut it into wedges or slices. Then take one wedge and cut between the peel and the pulp of the fruit. This way you can easily place the wedge on the rim of your glass.

    Step three

    Fill your highball glass full to the top with ice.

    Step four

    Measure out 2 oz of Brandy using your jigger. Then, pour your Brandy into your highball glass.

    Step Five

    Measure out 4 oz of Dr Pepper using your jigger. And also pour that into your highball glass with your Brandy and ice.

    You can use more Dr Pepper than 4 oz if you wish. This will mask the flavor of the Brandy a little more.

    Step Six

    Carefully use your bar spoon to thoroughly mix your two ingredients together.

    Sit back, take a sip and enjoy!
