How To
How to make Manhattan Cocktails that are truly exceptional
The Manhattan is the most popular cocktail in the world. Harry Craddock first described it in his book "The Savoy Bar Book" (1930). 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 Angostura bitters. There are many variations to the Manhattan recipe, including the Old Fashioned.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail, made with four ingredients. It is served straight up in chilled glasses. 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. Bartenders and drinkers continue to love the original recipe.
Some prefer bourbon to rye and others prefer to drink brandy. However, both work equally well. Equal amounts of each ingredient should be used when you prepare a Manhattan. You would use two shots each of rye and sweet vermouth. Four shots of dry vermouth is also recommended. Eight shots of vodka are sufficient. Mix them all together, and let it sit for 15 mins. Strain the mixture into a bowl and serve. Serve with a maraschino cherry, or a twist lemon peel.
