I like to blow bubbles with my swirly straw when i have cognac
Well alrite, thx 4 clearin’ that up xD
Throw some in a soda stream and see how it goes!
I tried this with vodka and it blew up
BigClivedotCom has probably tried.
The reason some beer and wine is carbonated is because alcohol is made by yeast eating sugar and producing alcohol and carbon dioxide. If you bottled the beverage before all the sugar had been consumed by the yeast, the process would continue and carbon dioxide would be trapped by the bottle, pressurizing it and forcing the carbon dioxide to stay dissolved until the bottle is opened.
Cognac is a liquor. Liquor is made by distilling something that’s been fermented, to increase the alcohol concentration beyond the point at which yeast can survive. Traditional production methods could not produce a carbonated liquor. It’s possible to add carbon dioxide directly now, but alcoholic beverage styles are largely dictated by tradition.
Production methods, however, do take advantage of modern technology, commercially produced beer is typically pasteurized, killing the yeast, and the expected carbon dioxide is added. This eliminates a risk of misjudging the sugar content at bottling, which can lead to excessive pressure causing exploding bottles.
No. The cognac region makes wine and certainly a handful are sparkling. But if we’re talking about cognac, the formal name for French brandy, no. That would violate laws protecting the name “cognac”. There are very specific restrictions on most of these big international names and you have to follow very specific manufacturing practices.
I don’t think he’s done Cognac, but Big Clive at bigclivedotcom on YouTube has a series called “will it carbonate”, where he uses a soda stream to try and carbonate all sorts of adult beverages. At least a bit interesting even in the ones where he’s not giving much feedback.

Bro that sounds dope af. Subscribed!
He’s definitely worth it if you’re into electronics and silly little gadgets, which is his much more common topic. He seems to be a chill sparky.
I don’t think that exists since Cognac is barrel aged, and it would lose any carbonation from fermenting when it is aging. You can mix it with sparkling water if you really want a “bubbly Cognac” or, if you are into home brewing, you can try to rebottle Cognac with some priming sugar or carbonating drops
You’d have to force carbonate with CO2. 40% ABV is way too high for fermentation.
Just order a Henney and Sprite like everyone else.
Nah No Sprite, lime and that German mineral water
