Ingredients
Scale
- 4 oz. bourbon whiskey
- 2 oz. sweet vermouth
- 1 oz. Luxardo maraschino liqueur
- 4 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1/2 oz maraschino cherry juice (1 tablespoon)
- 6 maraschino cherries or to taste
Instructions
- Place martini glasses in freezer or fill with ice to chill.
- Pour bourbon, sweet vermouth, Luxardo, bitters, and cherry juice into cocktail shaker. Fill shaker with ice and shake. (That’s right, I said shake. I don’t mind about bruising and cloudiness and the like. I like it super cold and a little diluted. Stir if you prefer.)
- Remove ice from chilled glasses or take glasses out of the freezer, and place 3 cherries in bottom of each glass. Pour half of mixture over cherries in each glass. Sip and enjoy, but not too slowly because it tastes best very cold.
