In this low-proof spin on the Manhattan, sweet vermouth and rye switch places; the former acting as the base spirit and the latter as the modifier. Small measures of amontillado sherry and dry vermouth add complexity and balance.
ingredients:
1 oz | 30 ml Sweet Vermouth
¾ oz | 22.5 ml Rye Whiskey
¾ oz | 22.5 ml Amontillado Sherry
½ oz | 15 ml Dry Vermouth
2 Dashes Angostura Bitters
Garnish: lemon twist
instructions:
Add all the ingredients in a mixing glass, add ice, and stir until chilled. Strain into a coupe, then garnish with a lemon twist.

PSA: Make a smoked apple pie syrup this month. Make a lot.
Remember when I made a smoked apple pie syrup on my @traegergrills to make an Apple Pie a La Mode whiskey sour? No? Well check it out a couple posts back because it was firrrrreeee.
Anyways, I figured I’d put that syrup to good use in an Old Fashioned and it worked out way better than I could have ever imagined. Up next - the batched version!
