Wisconsin Old Fashioned: The Ultimate Guide to Getting It Right 🍹

Ok, apparently I’ve been making this the wrong way? 😒 Wisconsin Old Fashioned… I don’t think I know of any other classic cocktail thats so heavily disputed by an entire region. I’ve been drinking old fashioned’s for a while now and always have preferred them… the old fashioned way (ps. This is how the drink got its name - spirit, bitters, sugar + water). But the last time I made the Wisconsin OF, Wisconsinites slid into the comments section asking telling me I still did it wrong. In their defense, apparently it’s made with brandy and not bourbon (which was apparently the case for the OG old fashioned). So lets do this the right way, feel free to throw the hate down below, I’m bracing for impact :) Cheers y’all. — WISCONSIN OLD FASHIONED (TAKE 2) — 2½ oz | 75 ml Brandy 3 Sugar Cubes 4 Dashes Angostura Bitters 4 Orange Wedges 4 Maraschino Cherries — Combine all ingredients in a rocks glass and muddle.
