Brooklyn Cocktail Recipe
Manhattan lovers listen up. The Brooklyn cocktail is a classic whiskey drink made with maraschino liqueur, dry vermouth, and bitters.
Servings: 1 cocktail
Ingredients
- 2 ounces American rye or Bourbon
- 1 ounce dry vermouth
- 1/4 ounce maraschino liqueur
- 1/4 ounce Amer Picon Ramazzotti, Montenegro (Amaro), or 2 dashes each of Angostura and orange bitters
- Luxardo cherry garnish
Instructions
- Combine whiskey, vermouth, maraschino, and amaro in a mixing glass filled halfway with ice.
- Stir vigorously for 15 seconds and strain into a chilled coupe or Nick and Nora glass.
- Garnish with a Luxardo cherry.
Notes
Amer Picon is nearly impossible to find in the US so many bartenders substitute with an Italian Amaro such as Ramazzotti or Montenegro.
Freeze your glasses ahead of time to keep your drink chilled longer. A room-temperature glass will significantly warm your cocktail.
Stir your cocktail with larger ice cubes if you have them. Use plenty of ice to chill the cocktail rapidly without over-dilution.
