This 3-Ingredient Cocktail Is the Perfect Date Night Drink
Briefly

The Manhattan cocktail is a timeless drink usually made with rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, and aromatic bitters, garnished with a cocktail cherry for an extra touch. Created in the late 1800s at the Manhattan Club in NYC, it boasts a richer flavor compared to similarly styled cocktails such as the old fashioned. Jack’s favorite rye brands include Bulleit and Koval, while he enjoys Dolin and Carpano's Antica Formula vermouth. This elevated drink is perfect for enjoyable evenings at home and is simple enough to prepare without much effort.
Don't skip the cocktail cherry for garnish-brandied or maraschino, take your pick.

It's like a cousin of another of Jack's favorite whiskey drinks, the old fashioned.
But while an old fashioned is sweetened with simple syrup or sugar, a Manhattan contains sweet vermouth, a fortified wine that's infused with aromatics.
