A Brandy Slush is just like winter snowflakes in Milwaukee, no two recipes are the same. The Brandy slush recipe below is made with lemonade, orange juice and tea. A brandy slush is a great summer and fall drink because it includes frozen beverages. Be sure to plan ahead before making these for company as it takes about 24 hours to freeze the liquor in these drinks.
This makes a big batch so you will have enough for when company comes over. It also will keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months.
