Magnificently Tasty Manhattan
Prep time: 5 mins Makes: Serves 2
When you hear the words 'Manhattan' you'd be forgiven for automatically thinking of New York City but since it doesn't look like we'll be allowed to travel anytime soon (still), this fancy, sour cocktail is as close as we're going to get!
Invented in the 1880s, this cocktail has stayed pretty much the same since then, with bourbon, vermouth and bitters all combining together to create a party in your mouth.
That being said, it's time to spice up your date nights and ensure the fun is flowing!

1. Combine the bourbon, sweet vermouth and both bitters in a mixing glass.
2. Add the ice and stir the drink so it chills and dilutes the taste a little.

4. Drink up!
