How to make Manhattan's best cocktail

You will find equal amounts of sweet and dry vermouths, gin, and whiskey in this cocktail. Some people add bitters, orange juice, maraschino cherry, or even Angostura Bitters. The Manhattan recipe has many variations, such as the Old Fashioned.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail with four ingredients. It can be served straight up in an ice-cold glass. The Four Deuces cocktail was first created in the 19th century. It consisted of two measures whisky, two measurements of rye and two measures gin. The original recipe is still loved by bartenders, drinkers, and even chefs.
Some prefer bourbon to rye and others prefer to drink brandy. Both work equally well. When preparing a Manhattan, use equal parts of each ingredient. 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 mixture and serve. Garnish with a maraschino cherry or a twist of lemon peel.
