Tequila Manhattan Instructions

The Tequila Manhattan is a unique twist on the classic Manhattan cocktail. Instead of using whiskey, this recipe calls for tequila, which adds a delightful kick to the drink.

To make a Tequila Manhattan, you'll need a few key ingredients. Start with 2 ounces of tequila, preferably a good quality reposado or aƱejo tequila. Next, add 1 ounce of sweet vermouth and a few dashes of aromatic bitters. You can use Angostura bitters or any other brand you prefer. Finally, don't forget the maraschino cherry for garnish.

Now, let's move on to the instructions. First, fill a mixing glass with ice. Add the tequila, sweet vermouth, and bitters to the glass. Stir the ingredients well to combine and chill. This will also help to dilute the drink slightly.

Next, strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass. You can use a coupe glass or even a classic martini glass for a more elegant presentation. Garnish the drink with a maraschino cherry. You can also add a twist of orange peel for an extra burst of flavor.

And there you have it! A refreshing and slightly unexpected take on the traditional Manhattan cocktail. The Tequila Manhattan is perfect for tequila enthusiasts who want to try something new and exciting. So grab your ingredients, mix up a batch, and enjoy!


Best served in a Old-Fashioned Glass.
