Cocktail

2 oz Blade & Bow Bourbon1 oz Giuseppe Carpano Vermouth (sweet)1/4 oz Luxardo Maraschino Cherry Liqueur (or Luxardo Maraschino)2 dashes Angostura bitters1 piece Orange peel (for garnish)1 piece Luxardo cherries (for garnish)6 pieces Large ice cubes (for stirring)

Method

Cocktail

Prepare glass

Chill a coupe or Nick & Nora glass by filling with ice and water, or place in the freezer for 5–10 minutes while you mix the drink.

Combine ingredients

In a mixing glass, add 2 oz Blade & Bow Bourbon, 1 oz Giuseppe Carpano sweet vermouth, 0.25 oz Luxardo Maraschino cherry liqueur, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters.

Stir with ice

Add large ice cubes to the mixing glass (about 6 large cubes). Stir gently but thoroughly for 30–45 seconds until the mixture is well chilled, slightly diluted, and the mixing glass becomes lightly frosted. Aim for a lightly viscous, silky texture.

Strain

Discard the ice and water from the chilled serving glass. Double-strain the stirred cocktail into the chilled coupe or Nick & Nora using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer (or a julep strainer if you don't have a fine mesh) to remove any small ice shards.

Garnish and finish

Express an orange peel over the drink by holding the peel skin-side down about 3–4 inches above the surface and giving it a firm twist to release the oils, then rub the peel around the rim and drop it into the glass. Drop one Luxardo cherry into the drink as a final garnish.

Serve

Serve immediately. The Blade Runner Manhattan is best enjoyed chilled and slightly diluted to reveal the vanilla and spice of the bourbon, the herbal-sweet complexity of Carpano, and the cherry lift from Luxardo.
