Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Start by chilling a martini or coupe glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 2 oz of rye whiskey, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

  3. 3

    Stir the Mixture

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Empty the ice water from your chilled glass. Using a strainer, pour the cocktail mixture into the glass.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Add Garnish

    Garnish your Elyse’s Manhattan with a maraschino cherry dropped into the glass and a strip of orange peel. For an aromatic touch, express the oils from the orange peel over the drink before placing it in the glass.
