How to Make the Best Manhattan Cocktail
One of the most well-known cocktails in the world is the Manhattan. Harry Craddock introduced it to the world in his book "The Savoy Bar Book" (1930). This cocktail consists of equal amounts sweet vermouth, dry Vermouth, and rye whiskey mixed with ice cubes. Some people add bitters or orange juice, maraschino cherries, or Angostura Bitters. There are many variations to the Manhattan recipe, including the Old Fashioned.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail made from four ingredients and served straight up in a chilled glass. 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 people prefer to use bourbon instead of rye, while others prefer to use brandy. Both can be equally effective. When preparing a Manhattan, use equal parts of each ingredient. Two shots of rye will be used, along with two shots sweet vermouth, four shots dry vermouth, eight shots of bittersweet vermouth and eight shots gin. Mix all ingredients together and leave to sit for 15 minutes. Strain the ice and enjoy. Add a maraschino or lemon twist to garnish.
