Drink Recipe Manhattan
Manhattan recipe
Manhattan is the only cocktail that can slug it out toe-to-toe with the martini. It's bold and fortifying, yet as relaxing as a deep massage. J.P. Morgan used to have one at the close of each trading day. It's that kind of drink.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 oz Bourbon
- 3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
- 1 dash Angostura Bitters
- 1 Maraschino Cherry
- 1 twist Orange Peel
METHOD
Combine the vermouth, bourbon whiskey, and bitters with 2 - 3 ice cubes in a mixing glass. Stir gently, don't bruise the spirits and cloud the drink. Place the cherry in a chilled cocktail glass and strain the whiskey mixture over the cherry. Rub the cut edge of the orange peel over the rim of the glass and twist it over the drink to release the oils but don't drop it in.
