Ingredients

how to prepare

Prep: Chill your preferred coupe glass and gather all ingredients: the Virginia rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, aromatic bitters, and a Luxardo cherry for the final touch.

Mix: Combine the rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, and bitters directly into a large mixing glass.

Stir: Fill the mixing glass completely with fresh ice. Stir the mixture vigorously and continuously with a bar spoon until the cocktail is perfectly chilled and adequately diluted.

Serve: Strain the entire contents from the mixing glass into the pre-chilled coupe glass.

Garnish: Complete the drink by dropping the Luxardo cherry into the cocktail.
