Sevilla Manhatten Recipe

Cocktail

1. 1

   Chill glass

   Place a coupe or Nick & Nora glass in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail.

2. 2

   Combine ingredients

   Add the Sevilla liqueur, Carpano Antica sweet vermouth, and two dashes of Angostura bitters into a mixing glass or large mixing vessel.

3. 3

   Add ice and stir

   Fill the mixing glass with large ice cubes. Stir gently but thoroughly with a bar spoon for 30–45 seconds (about 20–30 full turns) until the mixture is well chilled, slightly diluted, and clear.

4. 4

   Prepare glass

   If you used ice water to chill the serving glass, dump it now. Fine-strain or double-strain the stirred cocktail from the mixing glass into the chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass.

5. 5

   Garnish

   Express the oils of an orange or Seville orange peel over the drink by holding the peel skin-side down about 4–5 inches above the glass and giving it a sharp bend so the oils spray onto the surface. Rub the peel around the rim and drop it into the cocktail (or rest it on the rim).

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve immediately while cold. Sip slowly to appreciate the Seville orange notes balanced with the rich vermouth and bitters.
