How To

How To Make The Best Manhattan Cocktail

One of the most well-known cocktails in the world is the Manhattan. It was first described by Harry Craddock in his book "The Savoy Bar Book", published in 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 or orange juice, maraschino cherries, or Angostura Bitters. The Manhattan recipe has many variations, such as the Old Fashioned.

Manhattan is a classic cocktail, made with four ingredients. It is served straight up in chilled glasses. 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 still 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. 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. Let them sit for fifteen minutes before mixing. Strain the ice and enjoy. Serve with a maraschino cherry, or a twist lemon peel.
