So, what is brandy?
Brandy is a type of spirit that is distilled from wine or fermented fruit juices. It is typically aged in oak barrels, which impart a distinctive flavor and aroma to the finished product. Brandy is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes, from savory sauces to sweet desserts. Its rich, complex flavor profile makes it a popular choice for sipping on its own, or as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Sidecar or the Brandy Alexander. Brandy also has a long history as a digestive aid, and is often served after meals to help soothe the stomach.
