The Brooklyn - the best Manhattan Variation ever?

One of, and possibly the all time favourite Manhattan variation, this is a slightly dryer, fruitier more aperitif version of that wonderful family of cocktails. If you like the Manhattan but think it's a little too sweet, this could be the drink for you.
Specs:
50ml (1 2/3 oz) whiskey (Bulleit Rye)
20ml (2/3 oz) dry vermouth (Noilly Prat)
7.5ml (1/4 oz) Amer Picon
5-6 ml (1/5 oz or a barspoon) Luxardo maraschino liqueur
Orange twist garnish (although lemon is also accepted)
Stir on good ice (with an unnecessarily long barspoon), strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Fold your twist over the drink to expel the oils and as an added citrus pop, rub the twist over the stem and top of the glass. This will keep the flavours alive longer.

Cara, I made Brooklyn cocktails for friends last week and I watched your video again a few times to make sure I was doing it right!!! I did have to go to a video to see how to make a variation on Amer Picon, and it was very successful (yay!!!) because in Vancouver and anywhere in Canada, we don't have Amer Picon. On my next trip to Paris (about 6-months away) I am going to definitely bring back a couple of bottles!!! It sounds wonderful!! I did use Bulleit Rye last week - I love it - and I also love LOT 40 Rye - made in Canada - damn it's delicious. Have you had an opportunity to try LOT 40? Steve the Bartender was able to get so it must be possible to access in Australia. This is a stellar, delicious, outstanding cocktail and my guests adored it!! Love your knowledge and video presentation. This is such a fabulous Manhattan variation!!! I am love the Toronto!!! Oh wow it's amazing. I could go for one now!! Lol!! Cheers Cara!! 🙂

I love Manhattans (Vieux Carre is my favorite). I live in an alcohol desert (plenty of Bud Light and Capt Morgan) so, if you could suggest alternatives when appropriate. I will never find Picon and I only know one liquor store 1 1/2 hours away where I can sometimes find Cocchi for my other Manhattans.. Also, no ordering liquor online in Ohio.

@BehindtheBar
@BehindtheBar 4 года назад
Absolutely, so you want a rye for this one as it is dryer and spicier- it’s easy to remember in the Manhattan family because they’re all named after places in New York, and New York has historically been much more fond of rye than bourbon! If you want to give yourself a treat, Hudson Manhattan Rye was one of the first ‘craft’ ryes I came across and it’s still delicious, whether to mix or sip. Michters is another favourite for me, they do tend to be quite punchy spirits though so you may have to rebalance slightly so that the other ingredients don’t get overwhelmed. Knob Creek is also very widely available and very tasty, a little sweeter than Bulleit but great quality for the price point.

Evolve in Hobart servers something called the Green Hook, which is essentially a Red Hook with a dash of Laphroaig (though the actual proportions are *very* finicky). Easily the best Manhattan variant I've had.

Been loving your videos! This is one of my favorite cocktails at bars (who have the resources to sneak in Amer Picon). In the states, we can’t get Amer Picon easily for our hime bars. Can you recommend a substitute and/or custom formulation to replicate Amer Picon?
@BehindtheBar
@BehindtheBar 4 года назад
Thanks Stephen! I know, it’s a tricky one in Australia as well- I’m just lucky my local cocktail bar is one of the best haha, and had a sneaky bottle on hand. The closest are amari which are more widely available are probably Nonino, Montenegro or Ramazzotti. My personal favourite of those is the Nonino because it still has a lovely orange note, but it’s definitely a bit lighter and sweeter than Picon. None have that awesome burnt orange peel note, and I’ve never found anything else that replicated it, so honestly I tend to save ordering a Brooklyn until I’m in a bar that has Picon and I know will make it well- that way it’s a rare treat!

I’d still try and use another Amaro as well as you need the bitter-sweetness, rather than just straight bitters (just use them to introduce the orange note). Do you have Averna, Montenegro or anything? Or even do a dash of sweet vermouth as well as the dry and the orange bitters 😊. Hope that helps!

Cocktail bitters are different from this style of bitter as you only use them in dashes… you could definitely use them to add that orange flavour but you’d still need something else a little bitter I’d say- Montenegro or something would be a good substitute!

Orange bitters tend to be a bit more floral rather than the burnt orange you get from Picon- another amaro like Montenegro or Nonino would be ideal, otherwise try a couple of dashes of orange bitters and a couple of dashes of Angostura if you have them and should get you in the right ball park!
