DanG Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 A good German friend of mine is here right now in Germany, and I decided to create a cocktail with my Booker's. It's a good bourbon, I think, and not cheap. But I thought... why not? I call it the Mannhattaine (because of the French cassis).Ingredients:1.5 shots Booker's0.5 shots Sweet red vermouth0.5 shots Dijon Cassis1 dash Angustura bittersToss it all into a shaker. Give it a couple shakes. Pour into martini glass.We both like it! Please let me know what you think, and if I inadvertently ripped this off from someone without knowing.

craftycoder Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 A cocktail geek would suggest that you stir this cocktail rather than shake it so the texture is smoother (no little bits of broken ice or needless air bubbles) and the drink remains clear. Link to post Share on other sites
squire Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 That sounds interesting Dan, I don't normally use Cassis but I can see how the flavors would work together. Link to post Share on other sites
DanG Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 I had completely forgotten about this drink until these bumps... thanks! I'll try it again tonight. But stirred this time. Link to post Share on other sites
