A foundational American cocktail, the name of which is not easily traced to the populous island where it is often enjoyed. This elegant drink requires a gentle touch and the Italian vermouth must not be overlooked. A 2:1 ratio is widely accepted as the standard. This cocktail can be made with bourbon or rye whiskey. We prefer rye because it results in a drier Manhattan with a subtle spice.AuthorHella Cocktail Co.
