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). In this cocktail, equal amounts of sweet vermouth, dry vermouth, gin, and rye whiskey are mixed together with ice cubes. Some people add bitters, orange juice, maraschino cherry, or even 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 Four Deuces cocktail was first created in the 19th century. It consisted of two measures whisky, two measurements of rye and two measures gin. The original recipe is still loved by bartenders, drinkers, and even chefs.
Some prefer to use bourbon rather than rye. Others prefer to use brandy. Both can be used equally. Equal amounts of each ingredient should be used when you prepare a Manhattan. For example, two shots of rye, two shots of sweet vermouth, four shots of dry vermouth, and eight shots of gin. Mix all ingredients together and leave to sit for 15 minutes. Strain the mixture into a bowl and serve. Add a maraschino or lemon twist to garnish.
