How to Make the Perfect Brandy Manhattan (4 Steps)
The Manhattan is a classic cocktail created by a wealthy New York socialist during the 1876 presidential campaign. The drink became the talk of the town, and mixologists soon created several variations on the basic blend, including the original Manhattan, the Italian Manhattan and the perfect Manhattan. Regardless of what the name suggests, a perfect drink refers to any cocktail that uses both dry and sweet vermouth.
