We've labored over the perfect formulation to recreate a classic Manhattan cocktail as a non-alcoholic elixir. Port wine (alcohol-removed), grapes, raisins and our No.1 Bitter Formula impart the flavors of sweet vermouth, and a bit of cherry nods to its traditional garnish.
As it ages in bourbon barrels, it takes on notes of charred oak and vanilla, and the No.1 Bitter Formula (the base of our No.1 Old Fashioned) adds complex bitterness to balance it. It is best paired with rye whiskey or bourbon, making it perfect for bourbon gifts for men and women.
For a Manhattan, stir 1 part Bittermilk Manhattan and 4 parts Rye or Bourbon with lots of ice.
Strain into a cocktail glass, and serve up.
Garnish with a brandied cherry.
Works well with Rye, Bourbon, or Other Aged Spirits
*Also great with soda water for mocktails and non-alcoholic drinks
