How To
How to Make the Best Manhattan Cocktail
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 and orange juice to the cocktail. 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. It's origins can be traced back to the 19th-century when it was known by the Four Deuces. This is because it had two measures whiskey, two measures rye, two measures vodka, and two measure of gin. Bartenders and drinkers continue to love the original recipe.
Some prefer to make bourbon, others prefer to make rye. 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. Mix them all together and let sit for 15 minutes. Strain the mixture into a bowl and serve. Garnish with a maraschino cherry or a twist of lemon peel.
