Dry Brandy Manhattan

Dry Brandy Manhattan

The Dry Brandy Manhattan is served with brandy mixed with dry vermouth. It is a slight variation of the Brandy Manhattan and the famous Manhattan cocktails.

There is no official way to make a Dry Brandy Manhattan, so use a little of your own judgement.

Based on your taste preference, you might consider varying the dry vermouth – just remember that the more dry vermouth you add, the more bitter and less sweet your drink will be.
