Wisconsin Old Fashioned Cocktail

My brother Mike makes a fantastic Wisconsin Old Fashioned Cocktail that will delight even the most brown liquor adverse drinkers!

Every summer I spend a week in the Northwoods of Wisconsin visiting my brother and family…eating and drinking way too much but always guaranteed a good time.  Mike makes the best old fashion the Wisconsin way and it’s delicious!  The cocktail uses Luxardo cherries (the best!) and is topped with, of all things, Squirt citrus soda.  It’s really good!  I highly recommend giving it a try.  He also makes a fantastic frozen Brandy Alexander that I’ve posted previously (a great after dinner cocktail).
