Cognac Mint Frappe Instructions
The Cognac Mint Frappe is a refreshing and delicious cocktail that combines the smoothness of cognac with the minty freshness of fresh mint leaves. It is the perfect drink for a warm summer day or a cozy night in.
To make a Cognac Mint Frappe, start by muddling a few fresh mint leaves in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. This will release their essential oils and enhance the mint flavor. Next, add a generous amount of cognac to the shaker. The cognac should be of good quality and have a smooth, rich flavor.
After adding the cognac, squeeze in the juice of half a lemon. This will add a tangy brightness to the cocktail and balance out the sweetness of the mint and cognac. To sweeten the cocktail, add a touch of simple syrup or sugar. The amount of sweetness can be adjusted to suit your taste.
Once all the ingredients are in the shaker, fill it with ice and shake vigorously for about 20-30 seconds. This will chill the cocktail and mix all the flavors together. Strain the cocktail into a chilled glass filled with ice cubes. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint for an extra burst of minty aroma.
Enjoy your Cognac Mint Frappe and savor the combination of smooth cognac, refreshing mint, and tangy lemon. This cocktail is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your friends and family.
Best served in a Champagne Saucer.
