This is why I won't hire anyone trained by a bartending school.
Manhattan with
Seagram's 7?
On the Rocks?
No concept of the culinary contrast achieved between rye whiskey (the original manhattan base spirit), which is is not sweet, sweet vermouth, which is sweet, and the aromatics of decent bitters?

It's not a Manhattan without bitters.
Just because people don't know the difference anymore doesn't make it right.

Wow... If I ordered a manhattan and got Seagram's 7 and vermouth in a glass with ice and a cherry I'd be very disappointed. Does the following recipe sound familiar to anyone?
2 parts rye whiskey
1 part sweet vermouth
1-3 dashes angostura bitters
stir with ice, pour into a martini glass, garnish with a cherry

It is clear that you know how to use the internet, but it seems like you refuse to research before you 'teach' us to make a classic cocktail. Maybe this works in dive bars and trendy dance clubs, but it doesn't work for those of us who are trying to take cocktails seriously. The people you teach at your school may not care about the drink as much as they care about the potential job, and that's why you can get away with this. But reconsider before you post to a different demographic online.

@jtiano Because I am a working bartender that had studied the craft. I would love for you to reference one legitimate bar book that calls for a manhattan to be made sans bitters.

@whosam1 How do you know that I'm wrong?
Thanks for your recipe. The original Manhattans called for bitters. The trend now for younger drinkers is to leave the bitters out.

We teach drinks the way people order them in the real world. Get in step with the way things are done today. Do you still drive a model t ford?

Most bar guides are written by writers and not bartenders and therefore the recipes are usually wrong.

Glad you enjoyed the videos. Your negative remarks show that you are a classless individual.
