We had fun entertaining over Thanksgiving. One of the cocktails that we served was a Little Apple Manhattan. Since several people asked for the recipe*, I decided to share it. Happy Holidays!
Little Apple Manhattan*
3/4 oz Travis Hasse’s Apple Pie Liqueur
1/2 oz. Vya Sweet Vermouth
dash Angostura Bitters
apple slices
maraschino cherry
Place a few cubes of ice in an old-fashioned glass. Add bourbon, liqueurs and bitters. Stir well. Garnish with apple slices and a cherry. Cheers!
* This is based on Travis Hasse’s The Big Apple; but since Manhattan, Kansas is known as The Little Apple, I couldn’t resist changing the name.
