Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Minty Brandy Smash Cocktail.
Step 1
Start by placing a teaspoon of white sugar in a glass. Add four fresh mint leaves and a splash of water. Gently muddle the mixture to release the mint's aromatic oils, creating a fragrant base for your cocktail. Next, fill the glass with about one and a half cups of ice cubes, making sure it's nice and chilled. Pour in one and a half fluid ounces of brandy, followed by a quarter ounce of Benedictine liqueur for a touch of herbal sweetness. Stir the mixture gently to combine all the flavors. Finally, garnish your cocktail with a sprig of fresh mint, adding a pop of color and a delightful aroma. Enjoy your Minty Brandy Smash Cocktail, a perfect blend of refreshing mint and rich brandy!
