The Manhattan: probably one of the world's greatest and classiest cocktails ever.
Why don't most bartenders put in bitters? I guess they don't know that a Manhattan takes bitters: in other words, they don't take the time to learn their craft properly.
Or perhaps they're just too stupid and/or lazy to grab a bottle of bitters.
I guarantee, if you walk down the street and go into the first ten bars you come across and order a Manhattan, the bartender will not put bitters in.
Here's the recipe:
2 ounces whiskey
1 ounce sweet vermouth
2 dashes Angostura bitters
Stir and strain into a chilled cocktail glass
Garnish with a cherry
Result:
a golden sunset!
Enjoy one of the classiest cocktails ever!
