#281...making manhattans

Tyler spent this holiday season perfecting his Manhattan cocktail making skills. Above are his ingredients, including the below bourbon soaked cherries, which he made himself after seeing them used in Manhattan's at a local pub....

My favorite Manhattan consists of:

• the larger side of a jigger filled with Maker's Mark
• the smaller (pony) side of a jigger filled with Sweet Vermouth
• a dash of Peychauds Aromatic Cocktail Bitters 
• a few bourbon soaked cherries....stirred and served on the rocks

I put away the holidays this past weekend, and used Jordan's great tip for storing lights in easy to unwind balls.
