Stirred—most Manhattan drinkers like it that way. (Shaking introduces unwanted oxygen into the drink.)
Ingredients
2 oz bourbon or rye whiskey
1 oz sweet vermouth
2 dashes of bitters
1 cup ice cubes
1 maraschino cherry for garnish
Instructions
Place ice in a mixing glass. Pour in vermouth, then whiskey, then bitters. Stir vigorously and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry.
