Black Manhattan Cocktail
OneFoodie has been experimenting with various cocktail recipes, particularly focusing on Manhattan cocktails. After several attempts with different mixtures, the author found the Perfect Manhattan too sweet and the Dry Manhattan not sweet enough. An accidental creation of the Brooklyn cocktail by adding cherry liqueur was enjoyable but the Black Manhattan cocktail, with its use of Amaro, a sweet but not too sweet substitute for vermouth, was identified as the perfect drink suiting the author’s preference.
Perfect Manhattan Cocktail
The “Perfect Manhattan” cocktail, an homage to the Perfect Martini, uses equal parts of sweet and dry vermouth instead of only sweet vermouth utilized in a traditional Manhattan. It adds complexity and nuance to the drink. The cocktail requires rye whiskey, both vermouths, Angostura bitters, Luxardo cherry juice and garnish, along with a lemon twist.
Old School Sazerac Cocktail
The Sazerac is a classic cocktail originating from the 1800s, known as the official drink of New Orleans. It is typically served “up,” but the recipe can be personalized. This particular version includes sugar, bitters, rye whiskey, Cognac, absinthe, and a lemon peel garnish, with the option to add an ice cube.
