How To Make It
Ingredients
- 50ml bourbon
- 10ml dry vermouth
- 10ml sweet vermouth
- 3 dashes aromatic bitters
- 1 maraschino cherry
- cubed ice
Equipment

- hawthorn strainer
- bar spoon
- jigger
Method
- Pour the whisky, vermouth and bitters into the chilled stirring glass.
- Fill the stirring glass half way with ice.

- Strain into the chilled cocktail glass.

Did you know?
When you see the term ‘sweet’, ‘dry’ or ‘perfect’ with Manhattans it simply refers to the style of vermouth. Sweet uses sweet vermouth; perfect is an equal split between dry and sweet while dry calls for dry vermouth.Make this Cocktail

Garnishes
Luxardo Maraschino Cherries / 400g
A jar of Luxardo's excellent maraschino cherries. These aren't the bright red cocktail cherries you usually see, made by removing all the cherries natural flavour and replacing it with syrup. These are marasca cherries steeped in a maraschino flavoured syrup, creating little cherry flavour bombs that will ruin you for other cocktail garnishes.
