Bourbon Whisky Ingredients
Is a manhattan a woman’s, man’s or unisex drink?
Ingredients
3/4 oz sweet vermouth
2 1/2 oz bourbon whiskey
1 dash Angostura® bitters
1 maraschino cherry
Typically the people that drink Manhattans fall into one of two categories.
1) Old men. These are the guys that sit about in the clubhouse after playing a round of golf and drink Manhattans, Rob Roys, and Martinis.
2) Young Hipsters. These are younger folk of either gender that want to appear more sophisticated than their fellows.
Personally I’m neither of the two but I enjoy a good Manhattan from time to time. As I hate the maraschino cherry, I never include it as it’s more of a garnish anyway.
