- 3 small ice cubes
- 2oz Rye-heavy whiskey (I really like Tin Cup
- 2oz Sweet vermouth
- 1.5oz Dry vermouth
- 0.5oz Triple sec
- 2 Luxardo Maraschino Cherries, plus a little syrup
- ~5 dashes each Angostura Aromatic and Orange bitters
Add the ice and the four liquors to a (preferably chilled) martini glass. My favorite are these glasses.
Skewer the cherries and use them to stir. While stirring, drizzle in a little cherry syrup, less than half an ounce.
Dash the bitters over the top.
Technically, my perfect Manhattan is not a Perfect Manhattan, which requires equal amounts of sweet and dry vermouth. But all cocktail measurements are guidelines, really.
