You must be one of them young whipper snappers.....

I can't drink Twisted Teas, can't drink VR's......FML.

Cope is a farmer in Iowa and works harder and longer than any of us, I doubt there's any fat on him!

People still pick cotton.....I couldn't farm or pick cotton.

Nope.

Who cares about carbs. Tastes good right? Thats all you need to know

I'm almost 51 and not a farmer. I don't get a whole lot of exercise or cardio in......unless the wife and I, wait.....never mind.

But, yeah I'm not a workout freak so gotta watch the carbs and calories.

Oh there's fat, more than I'd like. But no, I'm not heavy.

I love it as the foundation of a Perfect Manhattan.

I'm trying to make my first Manhattans, Google says 2 shots rye 1 shot vermouth, 2 dashes bitters and a orange slice twist. First one was very good, similar to an old fashioned, care to expound on your recipe, I'm using two ice cubes, Google said to chill and serve with no ice,,
Talk to me goose!

I'm 59 and play Farming Simulator '22 ( I also played version '19 btw ) and thats about as close as I'll ever get to being a farmer, sadly.

I’d suggest the variation called a Perfect Manhattan. Still 1 oz of vermouth, but split it 50/50 between dry vermouth and sweet vermouth. Lose that orange slice and replace it with a single Luxardo cherry at the bottom of the glass. Lose the Peychaud’s bitters (better suited for a Sazerac) and just go with the regular Angostura orange bitters. Finally, use a martini glass that has been frosting in the freezer for an hour or so.

Easy way to remember the ingredients is to think of the Manhattan area code. 212.

2 oz bourbon or rye
1 oz of vermouth
2 dashes of bitters.

Na zdrowie!

Also, forgot to mention … stir in a shaker of ice then strain into the martini glass. Some prefer on the rocks but I like ‘em up.

@Big 8 Rules I know you are a bourbon cocktail aficionado. I’m sure you have a Gold Rush, it’s my preferred for a bourbon cocktail
