I went to a wedding once in Wisconsin (maybe 20 years ago). They had keg beer and pitchers of old fashions. I think its the #1 cocktail in WI.
I prefer a manhattan.
Wisconsin is big on Old Fashioneds.
The standard Wisconsin recipe is a Brandy Old Fashioned Sweet, as Wisconsin is a heavy brandy state.
Ive tried them with brandy, bourbon, irish whiskey and once with Southern Comfort.
Funny, I was talking to a bartender today at a place along the sothwest Wisconsin border. He said occasionally he gets someone that wants one made with rum from Illinois.
