Tips:

  • Use high-quality brandy: The brandy you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your Old Fashioned, so be sure to choose a good one. Look for a brandy that is at least 80 proof and has a rich, complex flavor.
  • Make sure your ingredients are cold: All of the ingredients in an Old Fashioned should be cold, including the brandy, the simple syrup, and the bitters. This will help to create a refreshing and flavorful drink.
  • Use a large ice cube: A large ice cube will melt more slowly than a small one, which will help to keep your drink cold and prevent it from becoming watered down.
  • Stir, don't shake: When making an Old Fashioned, it's important to stir the ingredients together, rather than shaking them. Shaking the drink will cause it to become cloudy and diluted.
  • Garnish with an orange twist: An orange twist is the classic garnish for an Old Fashioned. It adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the drink.

Conclusion:

Frozen Brandy Old Fashioneds are a delicious and refreshing way to enjoy this classic cocktail. By following these tips, you can make sure that your Old Fashioneds are perfect every time.
