It's a cocktail. Whisky/whiskey, sweet vermouth and angostura bitters.
A proper cocktail. Not a massive fucking glass of ice and coke served by an over-preened teen who genuinely thinks that juggling bottles doesn't make him worse than a cunt.

PURE BOOZE.
And you get a cherry. Which isn't gay if you have it in a Manhattan. Because there's only booze in a Manhattan.

I don't like cherries.
You've ruined it.

to be fair,
for a proper Manhattan, it's both sweet and dry vermouth in equal measures, with twice as much blended whisky as vermouth combined. Just sweet vermouth is for ladies.

Fuck off back to wikipedia.
You probably have fucking lime in your g&t.

Fuck off yourself
I was a cocktail barman for a long time. You can have it sweet if you want, it just makes you a girl.

I bet you were one of those over-preened juggling cunts serving iced coke and cheapshit rum to cunts with their fucking ben sherman shirts untucked and too much fucking hair gel.
Like some sort of cunt.

There's no point putting dry fucking vermouth into whisky and fucking bitters, you tongue-spaz.

Never flared, it's a waste of time
I enjoyed mixing drinks, i still do, and prefer my manhattans perfect, not sweet. Fuck, it's a drink.

Untucked Ben Sherman Shirts.
And too much coke.

to be honest
it was big fucking tips when they were showing off, and some decent customers when it wasn't the weekend, and i enjoyed learning to mix decent drinks. Some people who drink cocktails aren't cunts.

I prefer a Vatican
it's like a Manhattan but it's with Catholic bitters rather than angostura ones. The taste has a bit more conviction.

I am quite fond of Manhattans.
