New Fangled Old Fashioned

The Wisconsin-style Old Fashioned, with its muddled cherries, oranges, and lemon-lime/ soda topping, is a bit fancier than the original formula. The original recipe called for four simple ingredients: spirits, sugar, bitters, and water. The bitters and sugar cube, muddled with a dash of water and topped with the spirit of choice, was referred to as the “bittered sling.” Acceptable spirits included whiskey, bourbon, brandy, rum, and gin. Today’s Old Fashioned cocktail usually contains bourbon, rye or brandy. And, it is purported to be the most often ordered cocktail in the world.

Cocktail Evolution

For almost as long as people have been drinking alcohol, they’ve been mixing their drinks. Blending honey and spices into wild fermented beverages made them more palatable. Other more recent developments have led to what is now a multi-billion dollar industry...

Ice, Ice, Baby

One of the most important elements in the development of the modern cocktail was the development of commercially available ice. Ice is absolutely critical to the contemporary drink. It doesn’t just chill the blend — it dilutes it, melds the flavors, and soothes rough edges in a way that water cannot. Good quality ice can transport a drink to the next level.

That having been said, there is little wrong with a good Old Fashioned Snow Slushy! We might as well have fun with the hand that we’ve been dealt! Stick your vomFASS Brandy Old Fashioned bottle in a snowbank as you scoop up some (clean!) snow in your glass, pour, stir, and enjoy a vomFASS Old Fashioned weekend!
