Instructions

The Velvet Twilight Manhattan is a lush reinvention of the classic Manhattan cocktail that incorporates the richness of port and the subtle smokiness of maple syrup, creating a layered, sophisticated experience. The drink is served in a chilled coupe glass, which gives a nod to the elegance of the classic, allowing the aromas and flavors to concentrate and create a more intense sipping experience. Ingredients: - 2 oz Rye Whiskey - 1/2 oz Tawny Port - 1/2 oz Sweet Vermouth - 1/4 oz Pure Maple Syrup - 2 dashes Aromatic Bitters - 1 dash Orange Bitters - Garnish: Brandied Cherry and a twist of Orange Peel Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine rye whiskey, tawny port, sweet vermouth, maple syrup, aromatic bitters, and orange bitters. 2. Add ice to the mixing glass until it is three-quarters full. Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients without diluting the cocktail too much. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass, ensuring a smooth pour. 4. For garnish, skewer a brandied cherry and balance it on the rim of the glass or drop it in the bottom. Express the oils of an orange peel over the drink and then twist it to release additional aromatic oils, rubbing it along the rim of the glass before either dropping it into the cocktail or discarding it. 5. Serve immediately and enjoy the Velvet Twilight Manhattan as it leads you into a night of refined enjoyment.
