How to make Manhattan Cocktails that are truly exceptional
A Manhattan is one of the most famous cocktails in the world. Harry Craddock described the Manhattan in his 1930 book, "The Savoy Bar Book". The cocktail is made up of equal amounts of sweet, dry, and rye whisky. It's mixed with ice cubes. Some people add bitters, orange juice, maraschino cherry, or even Angostura Bitters. The Manhattan recipe is available in many variations, including the Old Fashioned.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail, made with four ingredients. It is served straight up in chilled glasses. The original recipe dates back to 1921, when it was known as the Four Deuces. It contained two measures each of whisky and rye, along with two measures each of gin. Bartenders and drinkers continue to love the original recipe.
Some prefer bourbon over rye while others prefer brandy. Both can be equally effective. Make sure to use equal amounts of each ingredient when making Manhattans. Take two shots each of rye, sweet vermouth, dry vermouth, and sweet vermouth. You will need eight shots of the gin. Mix them all together, and let it sit for 15 mins. Strain the ice and enjoy. Add a maraschino or lemon twist to garnish.
