A Scotch Manhattan

Glass Coupe
Method Stirred
Garnish lemon twist

A Manhattan that crossed the Atlantic: Scotch in place of rye, sweet vermouth for body, and a measure of Bénédictine lending honeyed, herbal warmth. Rich, rounded, and a little mysterious.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Scotch Whisky
  • 1 oz Sweet Vermouth
  • 1/2 oz Bénédictine

Method

Add Scotch, sweet vermouth, and Bénédictine to a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir until well chilled. Strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a lemon twist.
