Photo of a Manhattan in a cocktail glass (left, foreground) with the tools and ingredients used to make it behind. From left to right: Bull in China Copper Japanese-Style Jigger, mixing glass, Mancino Limited Edition Sakura Vermouth, Suntory Toki (in glass decanter), Angostura Aromatic Bitters, and jar of Jack Rudy Bourbon Cocktail Cherries.

Picture Post: Tonight in the test bar: Classic Manhattan. Yes, really.

First time making one at home. Angostura and vermouth are two ingredients I really haven’t worked much with (rookie mistake, I know) and haven’t been part of my bar until recently (yes, I’m missing a lot of essentials).
