The classic Manhattan is a 3 ingredient drink that’s simple to make but easy to get wrong. Let’s learn to make it from the basic build in the glass to the pro serve, and maybe we’ll get into some wild shit at the end. Cheers to the 212 baby!

Id love to see a video on the B-52 (if you made one already i apologize)
Cocktail Chemistry 🌸 your face eating the cherry lol 🤣
That’s why I dislike them, just too sweet
You know its a banger when the thumbnail looks like a home renovation.
WARNING I am the unprettiest human alive and I need YT to afford my house and the desires of my two girlfriends so please observe my highly stimulating videos, dear arian
AxxL or just get a job
"Welcome to Lowe's, how can we help you?"
"Yeah, so I'm trying to make a cocktail"
No one working at Lowe’s has ever said that.
@@junghunt8645 I love how that is the part of that interaction that you find unrealistic. A lowe’s employee asking if you need help.
If you want to see why there is such a huge difference in the taste of the cherries, just look at the ingredients. the cheap ones are a random variety of cherry that;s bleached with calcium chloride and sulfur dioxide until they turn yellow and lose their natural flavor. Then they're marinated in high fructose corn syrup and Red #4 food coloring for upwards of three weeks. The Luxardo are actual Marasca cherriess in a syrup made from the same cherries with no crazy chemical BS.
So that's why they're so red!
3:51 Potion seller, I require your strongest Manhattan !
His Manhattans are too strong for you, traveler!
The resemblance is uncanny
You're not strong enough for my strongest Manhattan, traveler. They're too strong for you.
Ahahahah wow, what a crossover
When I make my ice luges, I just freeze some food safe silicone tubing into the ice block. It saves from having to drill. IF the tube wont pull out, just run a bit of warm water through it to loosen it up. You can get a real nice, sweeping curve for a really neat effect.
Never though of running a manhattan through one, let alone smoke infusing with the luge. GREAT idea. Going to break this out at the next party.
Cheers!
Was thinking there had to be an easier way than drilling. Is the silicone tubing decently rigid, so the ice doesn't expand and close it?
Can I come?
Hey babe what do you want to drink?
“A Manhattan”
Ok, give me a minute, I gotta grab my smoker. Did you remember to charge the battery for the power drill? ..... yeah, no any size spade bit is fine.
Where the F-- are G-D- applewood chips?
“...........”
Too good.
You can swear on the internet, you fucking pussy.
I though my notification said "Manhattan 3 Way" and I expected something substantially different.
Ha ha. That’s for his Patreon.
@@dontblink2564 I don't think Patreon likes that kind of content anymore, so that'll be for his OnlyFans lol
Andrew Schweyer You know I immediately thought of Only Fans after I wrote that comment. You’re right.
This type of cocktail can certainly lead to a 3 way
Scott Brown Oh definitely
Manhattans have been my home standard a long time, especially after ditching Martini and Rossi. A better vermouth makes the drink.
Agree on the vermouth. If I'm going for a budget build, I'd rather use a $6 bottle of Gallo. That Antica stuff is amazing though.
I had a great Manhattan (in Manhattan) a few years ago and asked the bartender what her secret was. She said they mix Carpano Antica with Cocchi Storico 50/50 for their sweet vermouth. The Cocchi is a little sweeter and softens the Carpano which is very powerful. I was hooked and use that mix at home now. It's fantastic.
Sticking to Punt E Mes....
I've used Punt E Mes and Carpano Antica with Rittenhouse rye (Bulleit 95 is my backup if I can't make it into town, or the liquor store is out of Rittenhouse). PEM makes an incredibly dark, intense Manhattan. Carpano Antica is awesome, but so is the price. I finally settled on Vya, which is a California made vermouth and, to my untutored palate, very similar to Carpano Antica. I like the idea of playing with the bitters.
If the Martini is James Bond, the Manhattan is Bruce Wayne.
Personally I was turned off when I went for Formula Antiqa that peli ole often reccomend, but I’ve been meaning to try Cocchi.
This is the only man on youtube who chews his liquids.
Perfect use of the F-bomb...much appreciated
Homemade cocktail cherries are another way to bring it to the next level. There's penty of recipes around - I suggest the ones that start with frying the pits, as that bring a certain almondy flavour to them. Cheers!
Ooooh that sounds fab.
The moment, cocktails became industrial lol
Why is that comma there?
@@ryla22 didn't notice it
This sounds nothing like Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, or Throbbing Gristle.
Good point on drilling tech. Trying this on ice-shot-glass and made mistakes with cracks. Nice video
Now that the weather is a bit cooler in Texas this is my go to. I also like a good old fashion.
Another 3 way?? Can you give me a minute? I’ve just finished curdling the milk with the Pina Coalda
Watching this video AFTER coming back from the store, buying bottles to make my first Manhattan. Big whiskey guy and coincidentally bought the same 3 things you had out at the start of the video. Figured it was a cheap but effective mix. Already looks like I have your "basic" stamp of approval
This man really gave us a Manhattan recipe on 9/11
Honoring something from a great city I guess
@ForgottenOnes How is a cocktail disrespectful?
@@suppersdinner119, I think this comment itself is pretty disrespectful... They're just stirring in shit like an edgy child.
I remember when we cared about 3 thousand Americans dying in a short period, but hey only 1.5k Americans died this year on 9/11 so progress?
Im just waiting for this channel to absolutely blow up. I know it will just a matter of time.
Cheesy Nick Alert(or Compilation)
1:22~1:48
3:27~3:46
3:50~3:55
6:26~6:46
7:17~7:26
Should I keep doing this? BTW I like Nick’s cheesy “Cheers” scenes.
I'm a fan if nothing else
I can feel that Manhattan on my tongue. My favourite cocktail, haven't mixed anything for months, my well and bar-roll are all at my partner's house.
Your pro version is seriously the best looking Manhattan I have ever seen. To use your own words, it really does look fucking awesome!
Bro... I wish you were my next door neighbor.
This is my new favorite channel. Two words: BLOODY MARY. And since you’ve set the bar so high I’ll just put my expectations out there... multiple variations, spicy, bacon, etc. male us proud. Then I shall become a patron.
At a restaurant that has sadly since succumbed to the pandemic, I had a lovely Manhattan made with a strip of orange peel that was flamed as the oil was expressed into the drink. It was wonderful! I still haven't been able to repeat the technique. Clearly, I need more practice.
I really like you putting the prices in the vids, much appreciated
Your comment about why your making it out of a bloody great block of ice..... Awesome!!! love your channel👍🏻
Great job, I love the Ice block cooler. I keep being reminded why I like watching your channel!!
This man is the babish of drinks, what a soothing voice over.
1:08 I spy with my little eye somebody jump cutting out a third dash of bitters ;)
I found a good way to infuse smoke into the cocktail is to:
- Light a single wood chip on fire until it’s black and charred all around.
-Spray a single spritz of bitters into the serving glass.
-Put the lit wood chip on a plate and then put the glass upside down on top.
This will put out the fire and release a plume of smoke inside the glass which will infuse into the bitters and maintain the smokiness as you drink.
you're the binging with babish of cocktails. and yes, that's a big compliment.
The Dollar store Hemsworth delivers!
@JEDIMASTERZAK one of the running gags about this guy is that he's a "Dollar Store Chris Hemsworth"
I think he's hotter though
naw he looks like a beast making some cool ass drinks. He’s his own person don’t call him a budget anything.
So Chris Hemsworth is the real deal because he got lucky to be in high budget movies and make a lot of money, while this guy is busting his ass off creating his own career solely from ground up!! I have so much respect for this guy (I don’t know his name) than Chris Hemsworth.
I think he looks like Rich Franklin
@@sebs-shenanigans I think that’s the alcohol talking
That ice block presentation is serious cool. I salute you sir
Your twist on Vlad's videos is AMAZING! it really brings a different view on cocktails
A trick I found trying to get out a luxador cherry is to lift one in the jar with a dinner fork and then skewer it from there. Thanks for the video!
Came to the comments to say the same thing, except I use my stirring spoon and not a fork
What's weird is I scrolled down randomly on the comments and seen yours where I stopped, and I was saying the exact same thing
"What did I do to deserve this flat, flavorless Manhattan?"
Keepin the recipes fresh and in style. Never fail to surprise.
Any cocktail video with power tools is a win!
"Why are we doing this? Because it's going to look fucking awesome."
Bravo, sir.
> smokier than all hell outside in SF
"Let's introduce this smoker to our cocktail experience"
So how did you get injured ?
Narrator : _It all started when Johnny wanted to make a Manhattan_
The showmanship of the last version is perfect
Hahaha now THAT is dedication to experimentation, the Manhattan Luge! You should trademark that ASAP!
Girls on Instagram when they're "just showing off their shoes": 7:04
Also thank for the ginger syrup in the moscow mule I use it always no other ginger infusion comes close. Huge thanks for that
"what's going on behind the apron?"
me: idk, why dont you show me? 😏😏
Why am i love with this guy?
I've never seen a Manhattan served on the rocks before, not to say thats "wrong" by any means, just new to me. Nice video, cheers.
I recall the surprise the first time I was asked if I wanted it on the rocks or up. I prefer it chilled slightly but no rocks myself.
I've had it served both ways at bars but the coupe glass is definitely more common
It's mostly served in a coupe because it's the whiskey version of the Martini..
I cheat and mix in a bar spoonful of syrup from Luxardo cherries. Or if I'm feeling really trashy, I take all the ingredients (whiskey, vermouth, bitters, Luxardo cherries, ice--for whatever reason it's much better with ice) and throw it in the Vitamix with two scoops of vanilla ice cream. Sacrilege, I know.
“Begone dæmon!”
I always use a bar spoon to get cherries instead of plucking them out with the pick for the same reason. A little bit of the syrup goes great with a rye old fashioned.
There are certain flavors that dissolve when you add water to whiskey.
@@sabbathjackal Manhattans are stirred over ice before pouring, so the drink is going to be diluted regardless of where you pour it. You're also losing certain flavors by adding vermouth and bitters so I'm not sure how that's relevant. If you want the most flavor out of your specific whiskey then you should just drink that whiskey.
Man I haven't done an ice luge since college and the idea of making my own literally never occurred to me oh man
Another fantastic video, and featuring my favorite cocktail.
The Pro version takes it home. I am soooo happy that my local Italian Goods store started carrying Carpano!
"Why are we doing this? Because, it's going to look fucking awesome"
They ask "Why Do this?!?!"
Me: "Cause it is gonna look Fucking Awesome!"
Love it!
Spade drill bits don't clear the cuttings automatically, so you need to pull the bit in and out while drilling.
When drilling you need to get rid of the shavings often or they'll clog up the drill. When drilling in wood you'll notice you slow down considerably and smoke is let out of the wood. When drilling in ice you'll not slow down as much, because the friction takes over the drilling. It's not nearly as effective though, which is my you'll need to push much harder.
If you use a regular spiral bit it'll help evacuate some of the shavings, but it's usually enough to just pull the drill up often.
To avoid the problem of the drill catching, and risk shattering the ice, skip the Spade bit. Either use a spiral or something called a forstner bit.
Now, if I ever have a party again I'm going to employ my woodworking skills on drinks. I wonder if I can use electronics somehow as well..... 🤔
Skipped through most of this video to learn that the chemestry that goes into this interesting ice channel method is 'it looks neat'
This guy is smoother than the jazz in the background...
Can’t wait till one day we have a cocktail suicide made from every kind of liquor brand and one day he makes it three ways
This channel is so good
Carpano is an amazing improvement over martini rosso. Highly recommend for everything negroni included
I feel like an easier (and less dangerous to your hands) way of doing the ice luge would be to insert some hollow tube into the ice whilst freezing, then running hot water through it to enable easy extraction once frozen. Thoughts? :)
Hmm, excellent idea. Though the power tool certainly added that gnarly, exotic touch that makes it really interesting (though hard to achieve),
A tube would float or sink depending on the material so you would need to figure out how to keep it exactly a half inch under the water as it freezes.
Damn also a modeling show. This guy doesn't disappoint.
I am guessing I'm catching you on the upswing on subscribers. Keep up the great work.
Love this series
An auger bit might be easier than a spade bit. They have less chance of snagging and they're designed to pull the material out as they drill.
the chemist method is definitely gonna be a party trick I'm gonna pull out one of these days lol
I’m a bartender and I made a Manhattan for a guy at work and he hated it for some reason, pretty hard to mess up this drink. He talked to my manager and wanted her to make it, I’m guessing it’s because I look very young and I am young. Her Manhattan was 50/50 sweet vermouth to whiskey, not rye not bourbon just our well whiskey. I asked her why she used so much sweet vermouth and no bitters.
Her response was “there aren’t bitters in Manhattans you’re thinking of an old fashioned”
A Manhattan made with Southern Comfort was the third drink ever ordered on screen on Cheers.
Here in the Netherlands I rarely use Martini Rosso even for the basic/home version. For ~12 USD I can get Dolin instead. In contrast, Rye is so expensive that I consider it an absolute treat to buy Rittenhouse (~38 USD over here) and usually have to opt for Jim Beam instead. Even bars usually go for Bulleit Rye...
That is fantastic! And Luxardo cherries are definitely awesome!
Cheers!
Him: "What's rockin behind the apron?"
Me: "Cake" 👁👄👁
Next time add a second hole to your ice block so you can blow smoke through while your pouring the cocktail :D
DM if you want a few tricks on stabbing those luxardos. I had to pre garnish two-four jars a shift. We switched to the giant tub-o-luxardo. Almost big enough to Scrooge McDuck dive into. I digress. Offer still stands.

Pro 1:49
Chemist 3:48
If you're still using Martini and Rossi sweet vermouth, buy a small bottle of Carpano Antica (or the also delicious Punt e Mes) and have a partner set up a blind taste test for you. You will never go back to the cheap stuff; it doesn't even compare. Yes, it's more expensive. So keep using RIttenhouse, which is inexpensive but solid. The vermouth makes a way bigger difference, IMO. (Rittenhouse is good enough to sip on its own. Whistle Pig is so good and so expensive that I wouldn't mix it in a cocktail--in my book it's a pure sipper. Though I've no doubt it makes for a delicious cocktail.) Thanks as always, Cocktail Chemistry! Love the channel.
WhistlePig PiggyBack Rye is even spicier than the 10yr and is delicious in a Manhattan.
This series is great
Great channel CC!
Those comfortable threads!
I love these 3 different ways videos
nick is like the Picasso of cocktails
you should do a series on making bitters.
So I love your channel and I have to add a version here that my mother-in-law turned me on to and it is a "Perfect Manhattan" where you use equal parts sweet and dry vermouth and garnish with a lemon peel. That is my Manhattan of choice using Bulliet rye and by your suggestion I will try it with higher end vermouth and possibly the ice flume and smoke.
Thanks for the content, keep up the good work!!
Mack Wheldon is a little too rich for me in the midwest (we don't have that nice standard of living as the more populated areas, thanks politicians), but I'm glad you're getting some income! ***Even at 20%, it's pretty pricey after spending $200.
Be aware that the basic Martini range hasn't met the regulations that define how PGI Vermouth di Torino is produced for a few years now. In fact, you won't find the word 'vermouth' anywhere on the bottle. Now by law it's just generically described as fortified wine.
Fake expressions were killing me 🤣
This video was so badass
As a former bartender I feel like most bartender is a boat load of smoke and veils. A drink is a drink is a drink.
I need these videos for every drink on the menu 😂
I would love to see you make some cocktails using haitian rum called barbancourt.
This boy knows he’s a straight up snack
Can you do a video making limoncello? Even if it isn't a cocktail it would be really interesting to see your take on it.
I'm a simple man...I see a Manhattan, I drink.
You are freaking hilarious. Great stuff!
Stir it up a little with a spoon. Professional
You know the drinks are good when you have to use a power tool
I know what I'm going to try as soon as I heal up from surgery
3:50 Potion seller. I need your strongest potions.
25 bucks for a decently priced whiskey. Cries in Australian 😢
It’s funny how this channel got recommended to me after watching an episode of Bar Rescue lol!
