THE BEST DRINKS TO MIX WITH BRANDY, RANKED - TASTING TABLE
From tastingtable.com
- Soda. Soda earns our top ranking. And by soda, we mean any carbonated nonalcoholic beverage, limited only by your taste preferences and mood. Carbonation delivers an instant freshness and lightness to brandy.
- Champagne. Champagne, a bubbly white wine made from grapes grown in the Champagne region of northern France, is a different product than the other sparkling white wines such as prosecco and cava.
- Hot water. "Brandy and water spoils two good things," wrote English writer Charles Lamb several hundred years ago (via The Brandy Authority). As brilliant an essayist as Lamb may have been, we still have to disagree with his take.
- Grand Marnier. Brandy and orange is a classic, well-loved flavor combination. In fact, the only reason that we didn't include orange juice in our ranking of the best drinks to mix with brandy is that we feel we are already kind of covering it, at least in spirit, in this discussion of Grand Marnier and how beautifully it pairs with brandy.
- Hot coffee. According to the self-proclaimed coffee addict behind the Full Coffee Roast blog, many spirits pair well with coffee. That, of course, includes brandy, which appears on numerous lists of the best spirits for pairing with coffee (see, e.g., The Spruce Eats and Bustle).
- Kahlúa. Kahlúa is a particular brand of coffee-flavored liquor, and while any coffee-flavored liqueur will pair well with brandy (including this easy-to-make-at-home coffee liqueur), what impresses us about Kahlúa is that it uses rum as its alcohol base (via Kahlúa).
- Sweet vermouth. As we make our way from drinks we consider good mixers for brandy to those we consider the best of the best, we take a detour now from sweet liqueurs to sweet vermouth.
- Amaretto. Fruit and nuts are a classic flavor juxtaposition that spans numerous cultures worldwide — from Cadbury's Fruit and Nut varieties to traditional Sephardic haroset.
- Crème de menthe. Crème de menthe is the starting point for the garishly hued grasshopper cocktail, which, in the past, we've jokingly referred to as a "cocktail known to 10-year-old suburban girls who have been banished to the family room to watch Love Boat."
- Chocolate milk. Although chocolate milk came in 10th in our ranking, it is still, in our opinion, among the best drinks that you can mix with brandy.
