THURSTDAY
Time for a fancy grown up drink. I don't often drink Manhattans but every once in a while I like to have one. I never get it in a martini glass I always have it in a rocks glass over ice.You Need:
Cracked ice
2 oz. rye whiskey (or bourbon)
1/2 oz. sweet vermouth
1-2 dashes Angostura bitters (optional)
1 maraschino cherry
Put cracked ice in a shaker.
Add whiskey or bourbon, vermouth and, if desired, bitters.
Shake.
Strain over ice.
Garnish with a cherry.
Or just get it from a bartender. That's what I do.

Question: If i were to ask for a manhattan at Byz, would it be rye or bourbon?
I dunno. I can't remember. Most likely rye.
That sounds like it would be expensive from a bartender.
it tastes terrible.
Pablo - Rum and coke is cheaper. It's usually the price of a martini.
Timmy - So does PBR but you drink that
Rye is soooo good. Vermouth is vile.
I really want a rye and DC now. Ice cold. In a big glass.
Let's knock off work and go for dwinks.
More importantly, what EXACTLY do you get from a bartender?
