    Chill the Glass

    Before preparing the cocktail, chill your serving glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside.

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes (about 1 cup) to chill the mixture.

  4. 4

    Stir the Cocktail

    Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds, allowing it to chill and dilute slightly.

  5. 5

    Strain into Glass

    Discard the ice water from your serving glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the chilled glass.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Garnish your Manhattan with a single Maraschino cherry placed in the center of the drink.
