'I\'ve never had one of these but today I\'m making and testing the Wisconsin Old Fashioned, a cousin to the midcentury Old Fashioned that\'s made with brandy. So, I\'ll admit a gaping whole in my knowledge (well, maybe more than one), in that I\'ve never had a Wisconsin Old Fashioned, aka A Brandy Old Fashioned, aka A Wisco Old Fashioned. It somehow just hasn\'t happened, BUT, people have been requesting it for a long time around here, so it was time to dive in. I had to look around for a recipe I could trust and lo and behold, none other than Jeffrey Morgenthaler has weighed in on this one in a nicely produced video complete with humorous anecdotes, so I\'m following his instructions. Since shooting this episode I\'ve learned a bit more about the drink. Apparently I should have used Korbel Brandy here if I\'m trying to be perfectly accurate. As near as anyone can tell the Wisconsin Old Fashioned was a product of Korbel\'s marketing and specific targeting of the nordic diaspora in the midwest. I went with Copper & Kings \"A Song for Your\", an excellent American brandy I happened to have on hand. Wisconsin Old Fashioned • 1 Maraschino Cherry • 1 thin Orange Wedge • 2 Dashes Angostura Bitters • 2 Teaspoon simple syrup • Muddle to a paste • Top with crushed ice • 2 oz. -or- 60 ml. Brandy • Stir, top with more ice, enjoy Slowly but surely, I\'m starting a mailing list so that I\'m not fully dependent on YT\'s algorithmized notifications system.
