Ingredients
- 2 ounces brandy
- ½ ounce dry vermouth
- ½ ounce sweet vermouth
- 1 dash angostura bitters
- maraschino cherry for garnish
Instructions
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add the brandy, the dry vermouth and sweet vermouth, and dash of bitters and stir for 20 to 30 seconds.
- Strain into a coupe or martini glass and garnish with the cocktail cherry.
Notes
- The nutritional information reflects that the US Food and Drug Administration considers 1.5 ounces of liquor to be a single serving.
- The teaching is that cocktails made with only liquor should be stirred with ice, and cocktails with fruit juices should be shaken.
- This recipe makes a Perfect Brandy Manhattan, which has an equal amount of sweet vermouth and dry vermouth. For a classic Brandy Manhattan, omit the dry vermouth and use one full ounce of sweet vermouth. Or make both, and see which Manhattan cocktail variation you prefer!
- Always use fresh vermouth, and keep it in the refrigerator. Although fortified wines like vermouth last longer than other wines, they will still oxidize and turn to vinegar after a few months.
