To celebrate the kickoff of our 20th Anniversary celebrations, this month’s cocktail features our new 20th Anniversary American Whiskey, this month’s cocktail is a true whiskey classic — the Manhattan. Sometimes called the first ‘modern’ cocktail, this riff on the Old Fashioned swaps out demerara sugar for sweet vermouth. It’s a smooth, rich sipper, highlighting American Whiskey’s oak & spice with rich fruit & citrus.
The Manhattan
2 oz NSD American Whiskey – 20th Anniversary Edition
1 oz Sweet Vermouth (we’re using Carpano Antica)
2-3 dashes Orange Bitters
Stir ingredients well in a mixing pitcher with ice, then strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a maraschino cocktail cherry (preferably Luxardo).
