My favorite WI version is the brandy old fashioned (with of course the muddled Luxardo cherry, orange, and bitters) pressed (half 7up half seltzer) with a Luxardo Cherry and orange for a garnish. Some people take brandy old fashioned sour with pickled mushrooms or even brussel sprouts. So many ways they are mixed here.

Thanks for bring up the Wisconsin Old Fashioned! I am from Wisconsin and have worked in Supper Clubs back when I was a teenager in the 90's. All my aunts and uncles drink Old Fashioneds, especially at Christmas. In Wisconsin if you order an old fashion you order it like so: "Old Fashioned" My favorite is a Brandy Old Fashioned Sweet. The other popular version is Whiskey Old Fashion Sour. I've also seen SoCo Old Fashioned Press. Sweet means to use 7-up or Sprite, Sour means to use Squirt or 50/50. Both use bitters, sugar, some people put a cherry or orange wedge in there, then muddle, then put in your spirit, ice, then either sweet or sour soda. Garnished with your choice of cherry, orange wedge, or even an olive. I've heard the History has to do with Wisconsin's mostly German heritage and their love of Brandy. At the Chicago World's Fair a lot of Wisconsinites went to discover an American made brandy. They fell in love all over again with Brandy. Yadda yadda yadda Brandy Old Fashioned

I dunno, I've always had good luck dissolving sugar in my old fashioned, but I use a splash of water, teaspoon of sugar, and enough ango to saturate the sugar I also try to use as little water as possible to dissolve the sugar, and then add all the other ingredients from the mid-century with the whiskey (my preference is rye) last. Important to note, I use a slice of tangelo where possible rather than a wedge of an orange, and only one luxardo cherry with a drizzle of syrup, and I DO NOT muddle them. I stir it and let it rest to, as our friend Babish puts it "Let those flavors get to know each other."

The origin of the term 'cocktail which I've heard (no sources here; it's all hear-say) is that the term comes from the copious garnishes some bar tenders added to their drinks. Some people equated it to a rooster's or peacock's tail, showing off. The idea in this case was that a cocktail was making a drink seem fancier or more attractive, and so entice buyers.

I wasn't too impressed. I went back and tried it with Old Forester Rye 100 proof, simple syrup, and bitters and ice. Was soooo much better. Needed something.

Thanks for this! I've been on an Ol Fashion kick this month. You've given me some new variations to try of my favorite drink. Here's a Northern Sask old Fashion ( not really.. just what I call it as of watching this video) 4 ice cubes 3 dashes of Angostura bitters over cubes 1/2 oz. Traeger Smoked simple syrup (vanilla & cloves) 2oz. Wiser's deluxe rye 1 neon red maraschino cherry Ribbon of orange peel 🥃 drink-repeat
