Manhattan with a Twist Cocktail Recipe



Classic cocktails are called "classic" for a reason. I love a bourbon Manhattan -- the dryness from the bourbon, the sweetness from the vermouth and cherries, and the herbal bitters. It's a delicious mix of flavors all in one drink. For the twist of this drink, I added a little orange (pulling in flavors from an Old Fashioned drink), and an (optional) splash of cherry juice.


Ingredients

Servings: 1 drink


  • 1 oz. bourbon

  • ½ oz. sweet vermouth

  • 3 dashes of bitters

  • Maraschino cherries

  • Orange slice


Directions

Pour bourbon, sweet vermouth, and bitters into a glass with ice. Stir.


Strain into a cocktail glass. Add the juice from one orange slice.


Top with maraschino cherries.


Pump up the flavor: Add a splash of maraschino cherry juice for extra sweetness.




I hope you enjoy this cocktail recipe as much as I did! If you make it, please share it on social media using the hashtag #HHSCocktail, so I can virtually cheers you!



Thanks for joining me for "happy hour",


Lindsay
