Fill a cocktail glass with ice and cold water. Set it aside. Fill a mixing glass with ice. Add 2oz (40ml) rye or Bourbon whiskey, .5oz - 1oz (10-20ml) sweet vermouth (sweet vermouth is also called Italian or rosso vermouth), and two dashes of of Angostura bitters. Stir for about 20 seconds. Spill the ice and water out of the cocktail glass. Strain the Manhattan cocktail into the glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry or an orange twist.

If you prefer, you can shake a Manhattan in a cocktail shaker, but it will be cloudy.

A Manhattan cocktail generally includes 2 oz of rye whiskey, 1/2 oz of sweet vermouth, 2 dashes of Angostura bitters, and a Maraschino cheery. It takes about 3 minutes to make a Manhattan cocktail at home and with the ingredients listed will produce 1 cocktail.

No one is certain, but it was most likely invented in New York City, either in a bar on lower Broadway or at the Manhattan Club.

It should be 2 parts rye whiskey (bourbon or Canadian may be used instead), 1 part sweet vermouth, a dash or two of Angostura bitters, shaken on ice, strained, and garnished with a cherry.
