Class Act Instructions

The Class Act cocktail is a sophisticated and elegant drink that is sure to impress your guests. This cocktail is a perfect choice for a classy evening soirée or a romantic night in. With its smooth and refined flavors, the Class Act cocktail is truly a drink for those who appreciate the finer things in life.

To make a Class Act cocktail, you will need a few key ingredients and some basic bartending skills. Start by gathering some high-quality bourbon, such as Woodford Reserve or Maker's Mark. The rich and robust flavors of the bourbon are what give this cocktail its distinct character.

Next, you will need a quality sweet vermouth. The sweet vermouth adds a touch of sweetness and complexity to the cocktail, balancing out the bold flavors of the bourbon. Look for brands like Carpano Antica Formula or Cocchi Vermouth di Torino for the best results.

Finally, you'll need a bottle of aromatic bitters. The bitters help to tie all the flavors together, adding depth and complexity to the cocktail. Angostura bitters are a classic choice, but feel free to experiment with different varieties to find your preferred combination.

Once you have your ingredients ready, it's time to start mixing. Fill a mixing glass or shaker halfway with ice and add 2 ounces of bourbon, 1 ounce of sweet vermouth, and a few dashes of bitters. Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds to combine the flavors and chill the cocktail.

Strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or martini glass. Garnish with a cherry or a twist of lemon peel for an extra touch of elegance. The Class Act cocktail is best served and enjoyed straight up, without any ice.

As you take your first sip of the Class Act cocktail, you'll be treated to a harmonious blend of rich bourbon, sweet vermouth, and aromatic bitters. The flavors are well-balanced and complex, making this cocktail truly a class act.


Best served in a Old-Fashioned Glass.
