The Brandy Alexander - a simple holiday drink

Описание: Today I'm making the festive Brandy Alexander! Growing up this was the quintessential holiday drink for me. If you like chocolate and milkshakes, you'll love this simple holiday drink! It's a classic that you can enjoy any time of year as a dessert cocktail, but it's especially delicious during the holiday season. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! Cheers!
