Project Description
CLASSIC MANHATTAN
Rightfully named, the Manhattan cocktail was created in the heart of NYC during the 1870s. Predating the mighty martini, the Manhattan’s rightful place on the cocktail pedestal has been proven time and time again. That doesn’t mean you have to be a speakeasy master mixologist to perfect this elegant libation. Manhattans seem fancy, but they are truly one of the simplest cocktails to create. This classic bourbon cocktail recipe is as easy as one, two, three (and that’s exactly how many ingredients you’ll need).

INSTRUCTIONS
Grab your tools: Mixing glass, long bar spoon, and julep strainer.
Add orange bitters, Sweet Vermouth, and Isaac Bowman Whiskey into the mixing glass.
Add ice into the mixing glass.
Stir with a long bar spoon to dilute the cocktail and chill it down to the proper temperature.
Using a Julep strainer, gently pour the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass leaving as few air bubbles as possible (the top should look like glass).
