Sheesh, can't take you anywhere... Manhattans are not shaken, they're stirred,

Manhattan

Ingredients:
3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
2 1/2 oz Blended Bourbon
dash Angostura bitters
2 or 3 Ice cubes
1 Maraschino cherry
1 twist of Orange peel
Mixing instructions:
Combine the vermouth, whiskey, bitters and ice in a mixing glass. Stir gently,
don't bruise the spirits and cloud the drink. Place the cherry in a chilled
cocktail glass and strain the whiskey mixture over the cherry. Rub the cut edge
of the orange peel over the rim of the glass and twist it over the drink to
release the oils but don't drop it in.
