PERFECT MANHATTAN

As featured in our Cocktail Hour Video:

NEW YORK LIGHTS

What makes a Manhattan perfect? Equal parts sweet and dry vermouth. Sophistication in a class.

Ingredients:

2 oz Rye Whiskey

0.5 oz Dry Vermouth (we recommend Dolin)

0.5 oz Sweet Vermouth

1 spoonful Luxardo Maraschino cherry syrup plus 1 cherry

grapefruit twist

Process:

  1. Combine the whiskey, dry and sweet vermouths, and cherry syrup in a cocktail shaker or a glass. 
  2. Add ice and stir until completely chilled. 
  3. Strain drink into a cocktail glass and add the Luxardo cherry. 
  4. Garnish with grapefruit twist.
