Drink Of The Month: Manhattan
An undisputed classic. Up until recently I have always been more of a gin or vodka man but, especially now that the months have become cooler, I have been really embracing bourbon and rye.In the past month or so, I have had several different variations of this with bourbon vs rye but I think I found my (simple) favorite.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz Rye Bulleit (though I have been using Old Overholt as well so I don't tear through my Bulleit)
- 1 oz Sweet vermouth
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters
STIR in glass and pour over large ice cube in rocks glass. Garnish with cherry.
My favorite restaurant in Harrisburg, Bricco has a house version. Angels Envy bourbon with Luxardo maraschino poured over a huge spherical cube. Nice touch.
I think I'd enjoy this made with bourbon?
