Both sides of my family are from the Midwest, so our strong brandy tradition is evident in the slush we make for special occasions and in the Wisconsin old-fashioned cocktails we enjoy year-round. This recipe is a combination of both favorites. Needless to say, it goes very quickly at gatherings! —Stephanie Vaughan, Madison, Wisconsin
