It's been almost two years since I gave you a new original cocktail recipe from the Firewater Lounge. So it's high time that I corrected that. This cocktail I invented when I was looking for a cocktail to drink with a pretzel and cheese snack at midnight. I know what you are thinking, pretzels and cheese call for good ol' Wisconsin beer. You would be right. But cocktails sit much better on this near 50-year-old's stomach than beers do at this point, especially at midnight. Thus the Brass Stallion cocktail was born. It is as refreshing as a cocktail can get in the winter months and riffs what a yummy apple Manhattan might taste like.
