How To
How To Make The Best Manhattan Cocktail
A Manhattan is one of the most famous cocktails in the world. Harry Craddock wrote the first description of it in his book, "The Savoy Bar Book", (1930). 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. Many variations of the Manhattan recipe exist, including the Old Fashioned.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail with four ingredients. It can be served straight up in an ice-cold glass. Its origins go back to the 19th Century when it was called The Four Deuces. That is because it contained two ounces of whisky, two ounces of rye and two ounces of gin. The original recipe is still very popular with bartenders as well as drinkers today.
Some prefer to use bourbon rather than rye. Others prefer to use brandy. Both can be used equally. When preparing a Manhattan, use equal parts of each ingredient. For example, two shots of rye, two shots of sweet vermouth, four shots of dry vermouth, and eight shots of gin. Mix them together and let rest for 15 minutes. Strain out the ice and serve. Serve with a maraschino Cherry or a twist from lemon peel.
