Instructions

The Crimson Metropolitan is a bold and vibrant take on the classic Manhattan, adding a touch of bitter sophistication and grapefruit nuance. The subtle smokiness of mezcal complements the spiciness of rye, while the bitter elements bring complexity to this deep red libation. Ingredients: - 2 oz Rye Whiskey - 1 oz Campari - 1/2 oz Grapefruit Bitters - 1/4 oz Mezcal - 1/4 oz Sweet Vermouth (to replace red wine for a closer Manhattan profile) - 1 dash Angostura Bitters - Grapefruit peel for garnish Type of Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass. Instructions: 1. Fill a mixing glass with ice cubes. 2. Add the rye whiskey, Campari, grapefruit bitters, mezcal, sweet vermouth, and Angostura bitters to the mixing glass. 3. Stir the mixture gently for 30 seconds to chill and dilute the cocktail without over-diluting it. 4. Strain the mixture into the chilled coupe glass. 5. Express the oils of the grapefruit peel over the drink by twisting it over the surface to release the citrus oils. 6. Run the peel around the rim of the glass, then drop it into the cocktail as a garnish. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the intricate dance of bitter, smoky, and citrus flavors in this sophisticated twist on a Manhattan.
