MANHATTAN
Another classic cocktail originating from the 19th century! The Manhattan! Similar to the Rob Roy, a Manhattan is a mix of whiskey, sweet vermouth and bitters. I used Jim Beam bourbon in this one.
- 5 cl bourbon (Jim Beam)
- 2 cl sweet vermouth
- dash angostura bitters
- a cocktail cherry for garnish
In a glass, stir all of the ingredients with plenty of ice. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a cocktail cherry.
A perfect mix. I really enjoyed this cocktail. The vermouth really compliments the bourbon! I personally think the Manhattan is a wonderful pre-dinner cocktail. In addition, like its Scottish cousin the Rob Roy, this cocktail can easily modified with dry vermouth or using both dry and sweet vermouth making it a Perfect Manhattan.
