Ingredients

1 servings

Ice, for stirring
2 ounces rye or bourbon (I like Bulleit Rye)
1 ounce sweet vermouth (I like Dolin or Carpano Antica)
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 Luxardo cherry or other cocktail cherry, for garnish

Steps

Fill a mixing glass a few inches high with ice. Add the whiskey, vermouth and bitters. Stir in a circular motion for about 30 seconds, or until the drink is very cold (if you’d like a drink with less bite, stir longer).
Strain the liquid into a coupe or martini glass. Garnish with a cocktail cherry. Enjoy.
