Make a Bourbon Manhattan, or the Rob Roy: a Manhattan made with Scotch whisky! This booze-forward cocktail is a sophisticated way to enjoy a good Scotch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ounces (4 tablespoons) bourbon or blended Scotch whisky (for the Rob Roy)
  • 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) sweet red vermouth
  • 3 dashes Angostura or orange bitters
  • For the garnish: Luxardo cherry or other cocktail cherry

Instructions

  1. Combine the bourbon or Scotch, vermouth and bitters in a cocktail mixing glass (or any other type of glass). Fill the mixing glass with 1 handful ice and stir continuously for 30 seconds.
  2. Strain into a coupe or cocktail glass. Garnish with a cherry and serve.
